Yeah, the broadband adaptor (witch is basicly a network adaptor) but be perpared to pay near or over $100 for one

You can also hook your DC to a cable modem you already own. Go here for more info:

yeah i seen that, it did not make to much sense

 Hatecrime69 Apr 11, 2002
that's what i use, it works ok (for pso), but you lag (your dreamcast is basicly useing a 33.6 modem with it) but it doesn't work with all games (like ut, the olny other online game i have)

If your routing your DC through your comps cable modem and not another 56K then it shouldn't lag.

must be my poor winmodem then (witch i thought it was anyway)

Hey, that actually looks pretty #### cool, I think I'll try it when i get the comps in my house working properly. I actually cant wait to play pso online again.

If you put the wrong IP address for your Dreamcast, or if you are behind a firewall (router or software) of some sort, then you will moist likely be able to connect, but will have MAJOR lag inside PSO games, the lobby may work fine.

well, i know the ip address is right (i pinged it when my dc was connected before) and i also had my firewall up and down before when my dc was connected. it's this poor Creative labs winmodem
