Me and niddy had a few games and the first race went perfect, no hicups but then everything went down hill from there, Sundays are not the best day to do netlinking :)

Interesting info I found....http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r213315 ... nksys-PAP2 Some of these Linksys ATA's are counterfit.... Make sure you all check your mac addresses and verify its a cisco/linksys and not a knock off asian one. That could have huge implications on gameplay for sure

Hi!!! Where i can download PlanetWeb Internet Browser 3.0?
I build Hardware PC-DC Server
Image
It is Server CPU PIIITualatin1.4,512Mb RAM(UP to 1.5gb ViaAppoloPro chipset ) GF6600 256mB and FDD5.25 of course 8-)
Image
It is U.S.Robotics Courier V.Everything Hardware ISA modem(Up to 56K),I bought it last week
Image
Installed 2 OS - Windows 98SE(Use now) and Windows 2000Server (allow up to 5Dial in modem connections routing without other software,but need Mini Office phone station,becouse voltage inducer dont have dial tone in line)
Build Voltage Inducer Image
Im also have PAL Dreamcast.And i use 30Volt (it is very urgent moment for PAL modem.I heard for PAL modem 25V needed minimum),Power adapter from old HP printer.
Image
And today i made it!!! Firstly im connected my Saturn :mrgreen:

And after that
Image
Image

I chose the PC for connection because im also like playing old PC games like Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed,UT99,Q3 and much mooooore. ;)

P.S. I cant understand how connect to this page? http://saturn.dreampipe.net/rally.html

Im patched my ISO Sega Rally and when i chuse NetLink Zone then i connect to IRC chat as i guess.

If you are not using a dreampi you'll need to set your primary DNS to 46.101.91.123 to view the netlink page

Having some trouble setting this up. I've got everything connected but I can't access the VIOP set up. I found the IP my router assigned it and was able to access the config page. I edited the settings as per the guide and click on apply or whatever to confirm and I got a page saying it'll refresh in 5 seconds but it just timed out. Now I can't access the VIOP admin set up at all and it keeps saying connection timed out. Any ideas? :/

edit: it appears that the VIOP isn't being recognised by my router anymore despite still being plugged in. The orange light is on and is flashing.
