DreamPi is a piece of software I've written combined with a standard set of hardware which allows the SEGA Dreamcast to connect to the internet without a dial-up ISP.

What You Will Need
 
To build a DreamPi, you need the following hardware:
A Raspberry Pi
An SD card containing the DreamPi software image
A Linux-compatible, USB dial-up voice modem
A telephone cable
An ethernet cable
Dreamcast browser software (e.g. Dreamkey 3.0)

Chances are (regardless of region) you will also need to build a line voltage inducer. This is a simple circuit which sends an electric current down the telephone cable. For this you will need:
A 0.47uf capacitor
A 380 Ohm resistor
A 9v battery connector (two if you have a PAL modem)
A 9v battery (two if you have a PAL modem)
A soldering iron, some solder, wire strippers, electrical tape, and patience

this is super cool to someone who enjoys retro things like myself
