K, I've gotten this to work before, but I have NO IDEA HOW:

1. I have a Microsoft Wireless USB adapter, i want this to be the connection to the net
2. I have a NIC (Ethernet) and I want this to goto the PS2.

Now both are in my comp. How the hell do I configure it to do this?

Well first off the RJ45 you run to the PS2 has to a crossover. If your on XP everything should set up auto. (ie. it should detect the wireless card as your primary net connection, then detect the pci nic as a network device) Running the crossover to your ps2 should be all you need to do. I haven't dealt with using the comp as a hub in a console situation. So I'm probably just rambling

fuck me, i have a short crossover DAMNIT. thanks though.


EDIT: Neither way works. I've tried crossover, regular cables through the NIC, and then I tried both cable types through a USB ethernet adapter, which says it's working, but has no IP assigned, nor will it get one. FUCK THIS I'M JUST GONNA RUN IT THRU THE ROUTER AGAIN.

It's usually easier to just use the router. I personally hate setting the comp up as a gateway. It usually never works
