Dreamcast Online using dial up over CABLE?!? Youtube video

Saw this on video on youtube and was interested because he was able to connect and I have the same modem as him. I think I know how he connected but I can't tell because he shot it in the dark, can maybe someone explain?

He's using VOIP from his XFinity/Comcast modem. A few people have tried using that and failed miserably. VOIP adds a lot of latency and results in a poor and unstable connection.
