I've been trying to get my ps2 to work for months now with no luck. Ive tried every thing i could find from other's post but nothing works. So im gona try to a more open aproach.
My ISP is AOL, broadband.
I use a Linksys Wirelss - G 2.4Ghz, 54g Broad Band Router.
Ive have tried connecting directly to the router and using a Linksys Game Adapter.
Both get the same result when using the PlayOnline disc.
After checking the ether net connection it stops at the Authentication screen till it times out. It then gives error
POL - 1556 (Network Error - 500).
I did try port forwarding from what the manual told me to.
I did imput the data from my comp. ipconfig/all. nothing changed.
I saw somewhere that the ip adress given at ipconfig/all is not the Ip adress I imput for the ps2.
If this is true how do I obtain my ps2's ip adress. If you have any other ideas plz post them. plz and thx.
Also when using the network adapter start disc to get the settings i get error (-611)
Why does the Ps2 give me so much trouble T.T

Other problem I could think of is your router. Are the correct firewall ports open? According to support of playonline.com, the following ports need to be opened:
If you understand how to perform this, then you'll be on in no time.
