What do you use to get online with your dreamcast?

i have about 5 internet accounts, but they are all paid for by my family or friends... so dunno how much I can help u out there. Pretty much all the free isp's died during fiscal 2001. Only thing I can suggest is ask some close friends. Most of the popular dialup accts (earthlink, prodigy, etc.) that aren't software based like AOL let u dialup as many people at the same time as u want. There's probably at least 7 people online right now with my current earthlink account :)

a lot of the time they kill your account if you do that. if you have roadrunner cable in your area. well like roadrunner in our area makes us pay $5 extra for dialup emergency access. so maybe you could leech someones' roadrunner dialup since they'll probably be using cable.

i have two isps i can use which are free(one is metconnect and other is my college account at stony brook, well maybe that's not really free:eek:) and i also have earthlink...my bro uses it.

anyhow, my question on dial up with dreamcast. i don't plan on gaming on dreamcast online. what else is there to do? you can download 'patches' and stuff right? is that free? i don't plan on paying for anything 'extra' on my dreamcast (basically why i bought it).

I don't have a Dreamcast but if I did my DSL comes with free 56k dialup access, kinda nice.
