[QUOTE="megamatics"][QUOTE="white_sox"]So I was hooking up my ps2 to the PC(trying to anyways) and I've ran into some problems. I tried the networkset-up disc and I do what it says and at the end it says when I am testing my connection it says, "Ethernet Cable not connected to a network". Now I bought the cable needed, and hooked it up to the back of one of my PC slots...and still nothing. I am putting the cable on the right side(where the sticker was) and yet I can't get it working...am I hooking it up to the wrong place on my PC? Help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the off-topic question, but can I use any kind of USB keyboard through my PS2 USB port to chat while I play online, or there is a special one for it?m02a

so i posted this in another topc, so i'll just past it here..... I REALLY NEED HELP.

ok so, me and my brother have ps2's in one house.... so we decided on something, lets put 2 tv's and both ps2 in one room, ok, so we both have our network configurations working.... we both have "splinter cell chaos theory" and we figured if we hooked up each side of the ethernet cable to both ps2's then we could play as a LAN. but each time we try to connect. it says "onnection time timed out" WTF! i need help PLEAZZZEE

I have comcast Cable internet and a motorola modem. I try to connect my ps2 to the net. When i test the connection it says its good most of the time, seldomly its not. However, when i get to the DNAS authorization on Madden 07 or any other game for that matter it says that it timed out and that i should check my connection i think this is error 617? anyone know why its doing this? i really need help. could it possibly be that some of my ports are closed or something? i dont have an actual router or anything just straight to the modem. could the modem have a firewall that is messing it up?

PLEASE DOWNLOAD THIS

u can use this program to see if your ps2 is connected from your computer and also you can see the IP address of all devices on your network this if you do not have a router or switch do not use this program

Ok I have tried multiple things, including calling Time Warner because I have Roadrunner.  I have a slim PS2 and I just want to get online. I plug it in and go through the set up, and I get nothing.  Everytime it says connection timed out.  I have all of the correct items needed. I have no clue what is going on.  Please help.BigPete7978

Sorry if this was answered already but 37 pages is just too much to look through.

Alright, I have Road Runner Cable internet and my modem is a Motorola SB4200.

I want to go from the modem to my computer via USB...and from the modem to my PS2 via network cable.

I want to be able to play my PS2 online, AND use the internet on my computer at the same time.

Is this possible? I can't get them to work at the same time. If my computer internet is working, my PS2 isn't. Then when my PS2 is working...my computer's internet isn't anymore. I've tried messing with some network settings but still have had no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
