Before American's launch, Dreamcast ships with 33.6 k and after American's launch, Dreamcast ships with 56k modem. Back then, online games are playable with Dreamcast's dial up modem. Later on, they released Broadband adapters.

i read in games master(UK mag) that the modem is restricted by software.
by entering some disc(i didnt get it with my dc,so couldnt try doh.gif ) and tinkering with the system settings,you'd be able to use 56kbps.

anyone ever tried this before?

Dreamcast consoles came with a disc containing web browser software allowing dial-up Internet access. Dream Passport was the Japanese browser, Planetweb was used in America, and DreamKey in Europe. Version 3.0 of Planetweb included broadband capabilities, Java, Flash, and mouse support.


I didn't get the disc too, so I couldn't try. sad.gif
