hello.... I just got a new PS2 game that has online play (Mortal Kombat Deception). Sometime this weekend I plan on getting the PS2 Broandband adapter. Now... I have a wireless laptop that I'll be hooking up my ps2 into. Does anyone know how to properly get things to work for it? Or is there a site of some sort that covers all of this? Also... do I connect the ps2 broadband adapter to my laptop with an ethernet cord? or a cross over cable? Any info and help would be appreciated, thanks!

firstly you need a broadband supplier and a broadband modem.
the best option would be to invest in a Router. this way you can have the laptop and the ps2 sharing your broadband connections, but both work independently of the other. because your laptop is wireless, you will need a wireless router. if you want to connect the ps2 wirelessly you will need a wireless network bridge. remember if you get a router your broadband modem needs an Ethernet socket (not jus usb)

all in all, this is the best place to start:-

Thanks? But... you didn't quite answer my question. I have broadband already... and a wireless router already working fine. But ur right, I'll just google it.
