Online Wireless Connection

PS2Fool · Jan 13th, 2003, 07:17 PM

I'm new to the whole concept of online gaming with the PS2. Has anybody connected their PS2 to an already existing wireless LAN? I usually play my PS2 downstairs on the big TV, while my pc and wireless hub resides upstairs. Any suggestions on connecting the PS2 wirelessly?

Thanks.

I think I could help you because im in the same situation right now, alright, this is what im doing right now, im using a wireless Ethernet router, then a wireless USB adaptor or Wireless USB Hub, then a Ethernet/USB connector, and a couple of ethernet cables.

I ain't that positive about it well work, so don't try it yet till im done trying this, then if it work's, ill show you how it is done, confusing huh.

"and im using a phone line plugged into the adaptor straight to the wall"

Narrowband or Broadband connection? If it's narrowband it won't work, Socom is broadband only.

Silent Assassin,

it's a very common question. Just go to our test of ps2 online gaming on a dial-up connection. In a few words we explained what broadband means.
