    LAN = Local Area Network (Meaning you have to be in the netowrk to play)
    Online = Players everywhere
    LAN can only be accessed using a IP like 192.168.0.0 and things like that. Basically it's a server that was made in your LAN instead of using a WAN IP (local) that SMOnline uses so everyone can lay.

      SMLAN can be used outside of the LAN too, but its recommended to use SMO for that.

            SMOnline is in beta and it sucks IMO. Get SMLan for now chlohr.net/smlan i think is the website.

                Most likely depends on the amount of players, in most cases, SMLan wins all of those simply because it's faster with the lack of tons of players. The interface should be the same though.

                    Emccky, you have no idea what you're talking about. SMonline sucks worse than Lan how? The major lan errors are fixed, and lan was in beta too.

                      SMonline is supposed to make SMLAN obsolete, which is with CNLohr told me on AIM. SMOnline is hosted on one main server that is up 24/7 (some server crashes, but it gets started up fast) instead of a mass of lost servers that no one knows the names for in SMLAN. Plus, SMOnline is the only build being updated (SMLAN isnt being updated anymore, at least not right now). And, like falconsfan14 said, you can play anyone at anytime on the server. More features are being implemented into this build (like live player stats on their forum) and many other underground things they havent told us yet.

                      Anyways, the community is larger too. Check out the forums: http://forums.system-online.net/

                        Yeah, SMOnline is definetely better than SMLAN. It's easier to get into a game for one, and I've never had connection problems or bad lag...

                        In short, SMO does everything SMLAN does and more so there's no reason to get SMLAN over SMO.
                        Balloon Fever is beautiful and natural.
