In the Dreamcast manual, there is a place in which you can write down all the settings which will be needed. You may want to copy the information from this sheet to the book for future reference.

The 2.x browser is Sega's current version of the software. If your machine is over 1 year old and you have yet to upgrade your software, contact Sega or buy one of the Official Dreamcast magazines for an updated version of the browser.
