I was game for testing out that NetLink as I received all the equipment today, but apparently my SPA1001 adapter fried the moment I plugged it in.

So I've no more way to play games online...

Is there any advancement for a possible reimplantation of communication through a dreampi?

Ive fried a SPA-1001 too sadly. Only thing you can do with Dreampi is connect to the internet with your Saturn. You can view the Netlink Zone at least ;).

SPA-1001's are dirt cheap on ebay though.

Thankfully they are.

Oh well, another 30€ spending into a game of luck :P

At least, I managed to get a full boxed Netlink, and just that made my day, with an unopened CD of PlanetWeb. :D

Pretty much anyone in europe playing anyone in europe should have a great connection. The proximity for everyone there is way closer.
