How do I set up a PAL version 2 to boot with a NTSC-U Dreamcast console?

The only problem now is that according to Crono, the Dreamcast is not even attempting to connect via the BBA. On our end it looks as if it is trying.

Ok, here is what I have and what I tried and what happened.

1. NTSC/U Dreamcast (flashed to Schthack IP).
2. PSOv2 PAL (the real deal).
3. Utopia 1.5 Boot disc.
4. BBA (HIT-0400)
5. VMU with original PSOv2 NTSC/U save.

Scenario:
1. Booted up with Utopia, then swapped disc with PSOv2 PAL.
2. PSOv2 PAL booted up and recognized the VMU save.
3. I selected the ONLINE option and answered the questions to connect.
4. I then saw the burst screen and waited.
5. It eventually went to a black screen with the Action Pallette doing a rotation thing. This is something I never have seen the the NTSC/U version.
6. The I would get the network/connection error.
7. Crono was monitoring the event but stated that he never saw the Dreamcast try to connect via the IP I gave him.
8. The BBA works because it goes online with Q3, XDP and PW3.0.

Any thoughts, please?
