Thanks for correcting me.

It is true that the LANalyser uses an 80186 or 286 on board. As for the
Sniffer I have no indication on the spec sheets I have which processor
it uses. It was my mistake classifying these boards as dumb.

The message I was trying to get over was the benefits of multitasking on the
board rather than any comparison of hardware. I apologise for any confusion
caused.
