Well, first of all, I'm new here. Please welcome me.

Anyways, I had recently bought Quake III. I had played it (the demo xD) online with my friends some time back and really enjoyed it. And now I want to go online with my dreamcast and quake III. I honestly don't have a clue where to begin what I need, etc. Google has not been very friendly to me on this matter. I believe I may have to resort to a PC-DC server, but I'm not sure.

Here's what I have that's important.

An NTSC-U Dreamcast console with a 56k modem (type A)
A (fairly short) Phone cord I found rummaging through the house.
A desktop computer with Windows 7
A desktop computer with Windows XP
2 TV's
An AT&T 2wire Gateway (has about 4 Ethernet ports, a cable-line port, and a USB-PC port, [these are blocked by a sticker thing, most likely because I don't have the associated service plan: a broadband port, a phone line port, and two more ports that have something to do with phones])
Quake III Arena
NFL 2K1
Planet Web Web Browser wired by AT&T WorldNet Service

Can I make something happen? Do I need something else? If there a good guide for my setup? Etc.

Please help, and thanks in advance for any help given.

I would suggest buying a BBA for Quake3

If you wish to try a pc-dc, I have a guide for win7 here

I honestly don't think I can go the BBA route, way too expensive. And thanks for the guide, I'll try it out soon. Smile
