Does your PS2 have one of those?
What modem have/are you getting?0 -
Don't the broadband ADSL providers usually give the cheapo USB modems??
You'll probably need a ADSL router instead, but I don't know anyone on Tesco BB.
My next door neighbours have tiscalli BB and then got a cheapo USB moden.

I've got my PC connected to NTL 2Mb BB with a USB modem. I then bought a Network card for less than a fiver from Maplins, bought a 10m UTP Crossover Patch cable from eBay, and plugged one end into the network card, the other into the PS2, and presto, I've got a LAN which allows my PS2 to go online.
You will of course need a game that allows you to create a network configuration file on your PS2 memory card, or a Network Access Disc from Sony.I haven't been asked to tell you that I'm the [highlight]Board Drunk[/highlight] for this board. As the night wears on, my posts will become worse, with simple spelling mistakes, inane ramblings, and a blatant disregard for the truth. I have no authority to do anything, so there's no point asking or telling me. If you see me past midnight, please tell me to get my coat and order me a taxi.

Do you have the slimline PS2 or an older bulky one?
The slimline PS2 has a built in ethernet adapter. The older one doesn't, and therefore requires that you buy one, but this will come with a network access disc.I haven't been asked to tell you that I'm the [highlight]Board Drunk[/highlight] for this board.
