Can only connect to Quake and PSO

Post#1 » Thu Feb 25, 2021 11:30 am

Hi everyone.

So I managed to get my Pi set up and connect OK to Quake III Arena, and PSO. I've also been able to connect to browsers etc...

However, after hours of trying to configure my router settings, I cannot seem to connect to anything else. My copy of ChuChu Rocket hangs whilst dialing, AFO says error gathering network info, and tetris says cannot find ISP.

I'm in the UK using SKY as my ISP. Has anyone else on SKY had this issue, or can offer more advise?

I have created a static IP on my Pi to 192.168.0.97 and my Dreamcast IP is 192.168.0.98. I have set the DMZ to 192.168.0.98, and I have tried to port forward also.

I've also disabled UPnP in case this was conflicting with the DMZ being set.

Thanks in advance, I really hope I get to join you all.

I fixed the issue. Turns out setting up the Internet through Quake 3 Arena did not properly save it. Flashed the memory and set up with Planetweb and now working. Thank you for your help :)
