I have ps2 online, and i have a linksys wrt54g router, and a BT Voyager 205 ADSL router.

I have one main computer, which is permanently connected to the linksys router.

It's wireless, but i don't want to buy a wireless gaming adaptor.

My problem is, i need to connect to the ps2 through the ethernet port on my by router, but its used by the wire connecting it to the linksys router.

So how can I work around this problem, so i can connect to ps2 and pc at the same time?

Much Thanks.

Joe.

you can could a switch or a hub, and connect this. Why not just connect the ps2 to the linksys router?

and why do you have two routers anyway? dual NATing can cause problems.

That's the whole point of my problem.

Which port do i connect the ps2 to the linksys router?

Looking at the specs for the BT router, it only has one ethernet port and one USB port (slightly underwhelmed...).

joewolves, your Linksys router appears to have 4 ethernet ports as well as wireless capabilities. Just connect the PS2 to one of the Linksys ethernet ports or via a wireless connector.

Can't you turn your WRT54G into an access point, then configure your BT router to connect to it, and plug the ethernet cable from the PS2 to the back of the BT router?
