I will agree with Xiden. I think more people need less complicated thing about to connect and play online on Dreamcast. My opinion if someone can make a small board like for raspberry pi zero which can have fax/modem chip, wifi, ethernet,modem adapter, 9/18 volt extender so you can choose for what modem you have on dc. So the only thing to become a plug n play and ready to connect online.

An idea that can be pitched to a couple of sites that sell mod chips is mass producing a small simple board with a 9v connector and two phone inputs. The board would probably be less than $10. But this should be it's own thread in itself

My guess is that he's 12 years of age, has never seen a composite cable in his life and has no idea what a dial-up connection is. This is no excuse however. "Google is your friend." applies to people of all ages. :lol:

Yup! Larry Bundy Jr. just commented on it too. If you don't know who he is, he's a friend of Stuart Ashen, the original famous YouTuber. :)

PC you should consider making a Dreampi video that shows the newest LVI connectors you've made (AC adapter and USB) :)

Not sure this would help that much but if someone was to make a 30 second "advertisement" for the Dreamcast online gaming servers, I would pay for add space on YouTube and the like.

I am already investing into new DC games (check my info post in the lounge)
