Hello!
I just bought a USB Modem from Dreamcast live, and it didn't come with any kind of disc, or drivers, so my PC wont recognize it. (I'm using PC-DC, not DreamPi)
Does anyone know where I could find the drivers from a non sketchy site? Thank you so much!

Uhm, that's not what I asked for...
Do you know of where I can get the drivers at?

The only way I know to have DCPC working is with Linux or Windows 98/XP. That's why you need a virtual machine.

Why not just pick up a Pi Zero for $5-10? I got a Pi brand new for $5 from Adafruit and a 99 cent wifi dongle. Way more affordable and less headache than you think.

I just got the whole dream pi setup online. Comes with everything, just had to set up the network. Works great, play Quake III online quite a bit. Very easy and cheap

Yeah looks like Battle Gear 2 has online play as the ME56PS2 package mentions it and so does the game's cover.
And Battle Gear 3 has online...

Modem Filler

First post
Anywhere you can buy a filler piece that occupies the modem slot? I have a spare DC without a modem and am looking for a filler
Last post
Just get a used modem off Ebay. You can get em for like $12 and it will be easier to find than a filler piece and likely cheaper too
True. Thanks
