It's probably just for people who already have laptops. Think about that huh?

ok here is my question, i want to establish a wireless connection to play socom on. i just bought a brand new laptop with a wireless card in it and all. i need to buy a good wireless router and a wireless gaming adaptor for my ps2. my questions are as follows ( i could probably figure it out but its best to hear from ppl who have already done it) how do i connect all this stuff? can i play on the wireless connection through my laptop? and finally how can i do all this while at the same time blocking my wirless connection from other users in my neighborhood? thats all....if you guys could help me out that would be phat haha thanks....... -undead-

Well if you already had a laptop it would be alot easier and cheaper, the cat5 crossover cable only runs for about $10, but like I said, only if you had a laptop already.

yea but dont i need a wirless connection to use the cat5.... so that would require a wirless router such as linksys correct?...... -undead-

are you guys retarded or something.

You either need a wireless gaming rounter by linksys or some other b rand, and/or hook it up directly to the modem. it isnt that difficult. otherwise enable any computer you have for a shared internet connection, and run the cable through the ethernet port.


ive done it every different way possible and it takes 20 seconds to do.

you wont be able to run it from ur laptop to ur ps2.

your gaming adapter will pick up the internet signal on its own, you dont need the wirless card in ur laptop, inf act your laptop has nothing to do with this. i use the linksys adapter. all you do, plug in the linsksys adapter, go onlin to the site in the manual, edite ur network configuration, run the ethernet cable from the gaming router to ur ps2, and ur ready to go. the laptop means nothing.

I just wanted to tell the guy not to go out and buy a laptop. No need to act like a *** about it dude.

yea i dont know why the hell anyone was talking about a laptop, those have nothing to do with the gaming adapter. people need to not post when they have no clue what they are talking about

I understand why someone posted about it, you can use a laptop as a wireless bridge, and connect your Playstation to the laptop. Although its a good idea, it's was to confusing.

I just wanted to tell the new guy that his reply wasn't needed in such a mean way.
