Dreamcast-Talk.com

I'm going to set up a game, the ip is now 12.75.90.231:7647 . I'll keep the session on for an hour.

Had a technical hiccup, now ip is 12.75.91.36:7647

I'm gonna go to bed, I'll get my Dreamcast back online and setup Sunday at 8:00am (est). I apologize for all the messages, I'm just eager to play since I've never used dial-up for online gaming before.

Someone joined right as I was about to quit so I probably won't be back online until the 4x4 game night on Wednesday.

Ok, i will try again a bit now.

Host game in: 37.15.192.102:7647

Im still thinking that i have to open that port, for this reason i want try it.

*Edit: One hour and a half, and no body after all hahhaha, is like the dog and the cat.
I will try again at the 8:00am (est time).

*8:00am (est time): online hosting on the mentioned IP.

*10:10am (est time) : logging of.

If you are hosting a game => Yes you need to portforward
If you are joining a game => No

That is, when hosting you need to tell the router where to send the traffic hitting
37.15.192.102:7647 -> 192.168.X.1:7647
If you are joining, then you are doing a outgoing connection, so no need to do anything.

Thank you!

Sorry I couldn't join you, I had to go out this morning actually. If you want to try again let me know, I should be available for most of the rest of the day.
