Some quick answers to your questions:
1. Hack suply, armor, weapon and other boxes (USELESS)
2. Hack Dors (GOOD IF IT'S A CAVE LIKE JUGGERNAUT FAC)
3. Hack outpost's (CLANS WILL LOVE YOU)
4. Hack Belts (YOUR BANK WILL LOVE YOU)
5. Hack and download Faction Item's (A 0/2 CAN DO THIS)
6. Traveling true genne replicator from 1 place to other (GOOD IF YOU'RE CM)
The magical number for hacking is 110. Go over it and things start becomming harder. Below 100 it's realy realy hard to hack belts.
So, now we want to hack belts and warbots, here's a few "dirty tricks".
1. Timer/Speedhacking:
This is what's refered to when we use the timer and our mind to beat the computer. What we do is, we don't drop nodes at the start, no we wait off the timer till it's down to 14-15 seconds, during which time we "plan" our attack. Then move all the way down as fast as possible and drop your planned nodes. By the time the computer is halfway back up he'll have half his nodes left and the timer ran out for him. It will let you hack 100soullight belts with 110 hack in 5-10 attempts.
2. Traphacking:
This is something that you'll get dmed for afterwards.
The objective is to hack a belt in 10-14 seconds (a lot of people will call you a cheater or a haxxor if you do this).
Instead of waiting off the timer, we look at a node that connects to something the computer has to spend 4-5 to get back, preferably close to the top.
If you find this, drop your first node there asap, the computer will then start filling he node, losing 4-5 of his pulses. Then you drop another one forcing him to spend his last pulses and you then start dropping yours as fast as possible getting a total of 10.
This hacking tactic is often used in red sl belts, since they are easy to hack and people will try to get it back from under your nose.
Also it's used for "stealing" warbothacks.
1. Supply boxes sometimes has something usefull in them. I found Stealth III tools and other equipment that could be sold for some nice money.
The boxes in TH level-3 sewers can be good. The ones in the end room, with a door you need to hack.
4. Belts can contain nice things. You are supposed to drop one of your 10 most valuable things in your belt when you die (from quickbelt, armor and inventory)
5. Faction database is not made properly, as when you get the blueprint from the database, you will still need to get the construction license to build the damn thing.
To get the codebreakers, you will need to kill 60/60 mobs, so a 0/2 might have a hard time getting items from factions they dont belong to.
6. Not only if you are CM. I use Hacknet to travel on most of my chars (FA). Just put 20 points in HCK and you are ready to go. Cant remember if it is 20 or 30 to enter HackNet. Just dont try shooting at anything. Run as fast as you can.
I have calculated that if i change skills from psi use to hacking + implant + "ufs" + drugs, for this moment i can have about 180 skill point, and if i try to survive with belt hacking inough long can i be rich ? or usefull for clan ?

Read my post again, a ppu only needs 110 selfbuffed to hack all oplayers and hack all belts.
In fact if you go up to 180, good luck you'll probably not be able to hack any belts.
More than the 110-120 HCK is not usefull if you are not a HackNet runner.
All other things can be done with the 110-120 HCK.
I think you only need more than that if you want to cap the highest TL HackNet weapons.

165hack and 135tc caps all lvl3 software for a hacknet spy.
There's a slight glitch with the hacking logic. If you make the computer use up 4 pulses on a nasty node, and the computer has say 2 or 3 pulses left to use, you can make the computer use up those pulses on the same node even though it can NEVER be taken. You simply use one of your pulses on the same spot again while the computer is 'paying attention' (while the computers pulse lights are still active) to it.
Random note on more screwed logic; some of you should have noticed that if you quickly spam all your pulses down and take a load of nodes the computer stops trying to take them back after the first or second node and just sits there till the timer runs out. If this was sorted out, it would make hacking a skillful little game, the way it should be.
You can also fuck the PC up by timing it out.
On hacks that are very hard you just take (idealy) a 1 for you/2 more for AI.
Then u wait until you have about 5 secs left and take all the nodes you need to succed.
The AI doesnt have time to input em in and then u open it.
Altough a bit long, this method is good for very hard belts.

If you totally wanna mess up,
hack a GR and when the time runs out quickly press the LMB, if you're fast enough another hackgame will start and you'll crash ^^
(Consider this a bugrport too btw :p)

How will it be harder to hack belts with more than 110 HCK? I don't get it..

Just like it's possible that tl50ish spells do more dammage than rare weapons.

Hey, i'm at work, i have 17 windows open, one of them being forums, two of them being remote desktops to servers.
It's not like i'm doing work at a production line, sometimes it gets bussy some moments i just sit and stare, dreaming of large busted ladies and champagne.....
