Finally got around to getting everything set up and caught the very tail-end of Fraggin Friday. Looking forward to playing more in the coming weeks!
I use this method of playing online as it's by far the most convenient for my setup, however I'm unable to configure Dreamcast Now. It won't auto-detect and when I try to type the IP in manually, it still doesn't work. Since I'm using a virtual machine instead of a Raspberry Pi, is there anything special I need to do to set this correctly? I must have missed something.

Thanks so much for creating this image!

Q: How is this server different from the rest?
A: this server uses the same script as DreamPI
you will have Dreamcast NOW
users can connect to you in sports 2K games
in other words, if you do not have money to buy RaspberryPI, then download this PC-DC, with it you will get the same functionality

Hello, I am quite troubled still by the config.
I can't get the modem to show up in VirtualBox as a Bridged Adapter. May I please get some help? I had bought mine off Dreamcast Live and its a Conexant USB modem.
When I try in VMWare it seems the USB modem but Enter the matrix doesnt fully finish before it quits, says the ttyACM0 isnt working which I think means its not able to connect to the modem. It is connected to Dreamcast Now during the brief sequence that its trying to connect. When I try to connect in VirtualBox I have to use NAT and it works on most games but gives me a 10. address instead of a 192. address and won't connect to Dreamcast Now.

I opened it in another browser and it worked like a charm. Thanks again!
