(OUTDATED) Please fix the default DMZ IP address in the next DreamPi update.

Post by CutieJoey »

I can’t connect to Alien Front Online and 2K online Dreamcast games, even If it’s DMZed to 10.0.0.98! Can someone please fix the connection in the next DreamPi firmware update that can work with any IP address that ends with .98? I really can’t connect, even when DMZed with 10.0.0.98 instead of 192.168.1.98. Pcwzrd13, please do something! And I can’t do a static IP address. If I do a static IP address, it will mess up my DreamPi credentials. So please Pcwzrd13, in the next DreamPi firmware update, can you please fix the DreamPi IP connection that works starting with any of the first three numbers and that ends with .98? Cause I really need that DMZ hosting and I want to play NBA and NFL 2K and any game that requires the DMZ hosting method.

Yours truly, CutieJoey

Hi!

It is already the way you want.

Any IP pattern, will finish dreamcast ip with .98, if that address is free in your network.

Please check the IP you can see on Quake 3 Arena in final seconds of the connection process, that IP is dreamcast IP , and the one you need to set DMZ

I think I need a new router when I have the money, because my DMZ host on the router in my room, It doesn't work all the time for some reason. I either need to factory reset it, or I need a new one. The router I use is a NETGEAR router. And DMZ hosting for NETGEAR routers or modems is... Well I don't know everything about router and modem configurations. Just to let you know that I suffer with autism and I love video games including Dreamcast.
