PS2 Online Questions
Hey, I am getting the new WWE Wrestling game this weekend, and was thinking about getting a PS2 Network Adaptor. Just wondering:
-I have DSL, will that work with the adaptor? Also, my computer is downstairs and my PS2 is upstairs, will that make a difference?
-Will I have to PAY to play online? I don't have a credit card.

Fred,
it's basically 2 purchases if I'm not mistaken.
You'll need a router so you can build a small home network to share the DSL.
Then you'll need some sort of wireless NetExtender device specifically for the PS2.
I'm guessing the cheapest you could get away with would be about $100.
Hopefully someone will be able to share a cheaper alternative.
Good luck.

I think it's an old system + 3 games for a new system, but I could be wrong.

i recommend the wired route as opposed to the wireless. the wireless is all based on signal strength and that can affect some of the games. i have both set-ups and wireless works 90% of the time, while the wired way is guaranteed to work...
