I don mind removing the ethernet cable from my PC every time I want to play my PS2 online. What should I do?
All you have to do is unplug your DSL or cable modem from its power source (very important!!). Turning it off using the on/off button on the modem typically will NOT work. Remove the ethernet cable from your PC and place it into the Sony Network Adaptor. You will hear a nice small click when you insert the cable correctly. Now, plug your modem back into the power outlet and wait for it to finish doing a self test on itself. Turn the modem on using the power button (if it has one) and insert your network adaptor start-up disc. For most connections, all you have to do is use automatic settings. If it doesn’t work, power cycle your modem again by pushing the reset button in the back. You may need a paper-clip or a pen to reach it. It may take at least 10 minutes for the internet to suddenly start working on your PS2, so keep trying. When you want to use your PC again, just repeat the steps above — except put the ethernet cable back into the computer.
