 Posted: Mon Sep 29, 2008 10:38 am Post subject: PS2 network help |
 |
|
i would like to use my computer to connect my ps2 so that i can play online. right now i am wireless and would like just to connect my ps2 to my computer since it is only a few feet away bc i have it hooked up to my HDTV so that the screen is bigger to play PC games with. is there anyway that i can connect the ps2 to my computer's broadband port and it will work? i would really appreciate the help!
thanks!!!! |

Windows or linux? Linux is pretty simple to setup a local net (which is what you want to do). In linux, the simplest way to setup a local net is with Firestarter. Firestarter allows you to control your computer's networking and firewall from a nice GUI. It's in most distros' repo. That's how I use MY PS2 with the net - through my development box running Ubuntu.
I'm certain there's something similar for Windows, I've just never bothered to look into it before. |

| Well, I quit using Windows a couple years ago. Try looking for more pages on Internet Connection Sharing - use that as the search phrase in google. |

That is expectable to happen. It's explained over this FAQ:
