There are two different hardware add-ons which provide a "computer- network" (two or more Ataris linked together). Thus, there is software that supports either one or the other hardware (namely Gamelink-1 or Gamelink-2). The following software supports the networking hardware:
- Gamelink-1 (by Dataque): - info-text about GL-1 and where to buy it, by Dataque; - Tic-Tac-Two by J.Potter/Dataque, a tic-tac-toe clone; - Modem-Battleships, patched by Rick Detlefsen for Gamelink-1;
- Gamelink-2 / Multilink (by Dataque & Bewesoft): - info-text about GL-2 and where to buy it, by Dataque; - info text about Maze of Agdagon demo, by Dataque; - Maze of Agdagon demo (1 player only) by Dataque; - documentation for Maze of Agdagon (full version) by Dataque; - Maze of Agdagon (full version, 2-8 players) by Dataque; - description of multilink/gamelink-2 hardware and schematics by Bewesoft (two texts, one in czech and one in english; schematics presented as an Atari Gr.8 picture for a) easy-2-computer hardware and b) more complicated 2-8 computer hardware); - Multi-Dash (2-8 players, XL/XE only) by Bewesoft; - Multi-Race (2-16 players, XL/XE only) by Bewesoft; - description of "how to program networking games for multilink [gamelink-2] hardware" (text available in english and czech, with lots of source codes and OS adresses/variables/...) by Bewesoft; - Multi-Worms (2-8 or 2-16? players, XL/XE only) by Bewesoft; - complete + documented source code for Multi-Worms by Bewesoft; - "starter-kit" module to use in your own networking-games by Bewesoft (free use of this module is granted by Bewesoft/Jiri Bernasek);
