Toy Racer immediately gives up while connecting

I'm having issues connecting on Toy Racer via dreampi (US dreamcast, CDI). This is the only game I'm having issues with.
When I select the network option, it immediately gets to the "dialing" step.
But within 2-3 seconds it gives a message saying "Disconnecting" with no other error given.
Has anyone seen this before? I'm successfully able to connect on every other game I've tried except for this one. The fact that it disconnects so quickly leads me to believe it's a config/setup issue rather than a connection problem, but this game's config is so barebones I have no idea what else to try.

Makes me wonder if it's the same issue I had with Shenmue Passport. If you can , try connecting to Shenmue Passport and see if you get a "line jammed" error. If so you may have to flash your dc memory to fix. However if you play pso this will erase that so I would only do it as a last resort.

Interesting thought. I don't have Shenmue Passport and it looks too big to burn, but I'll keep that in mind if I ever get it.
I do play PSO, so if I erased my flash, would anything bad happen outside of needing to re enter my serial number? I'd still rather avoid reflashing if possible, but it might be worth a try if nobody else has any ideas.

You would have to re-enter the same serial as your current PSO save in order to continue using it. There are PSO tools to decrypt and find out what that is on sega extreme

I remember Toy Racer only this one that you had to have the DNS filled in couldn't leave it to automate, not 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 etcetc
Then it proceeds
