Quake 3 Arena PAL Authentication Error

[jiraiyaplays]

Afternoon all. I tried last night to join the POD 2 stream games last night but was having problems finding any servers.

PSO works fine as joined up with a few people until about 2am
Quake 3 NTSC works on manual servers but won't connect to master servers.

I was watching a video of to chaps from the UK connecting their dreamcast via dreampi on the PAL version of Quake 3 (no DSN or dial up settings to edit) it just connects fine (plus the video was recent).

I'm stumped as what to do. I've configured my connection settings via Dreamkey 3.0 with 111-1111 as the isp number and that connects fine to other stuff. I've gone into my router and DMZed with my number that showed up when I used the NTSC version 192.168.0.98

I've got a Sky Router, using a Dreampi with a UK voltage regulator (which obviously works if I can get online).

Any help would be most welcome.

I'm guessing Sky Broadband is your issue. They've been known to block use of custom DNS servers and force you to use their own. I would give them a call.

Tried sorting that but no luck.
