hi there, i received a network adaptor for my playstation today. however it has to run via ethernet connection and my ntl broadband runs through usb.

can anyone tell me an easy way to change it to ethernet or does anyone use the network adaptor for the ps2 and able to tell me what to do?

thanks.:confused:

:welcome: to the forum enjoy your stay :) .Do you have ethernet on your pc? if its not old I would imagine so.Power down pc unplug modem for about 1 min plug ethernet lead between modem and pc then power up modem.Once all lights are steady boot pc and that should be it,It may be an idea to buy a router to run between the modem and the pc and ps2 just power down modem plug into router power down pc plug router to pc power up modem steady lights power up router steady lights power up pc.Now you just add a straight ethernet cable to the router to plug into the ps2 and away you go
