I have been trying to connect my ps2 to my pc via a RJ45 cross over cable, this way i can share my internet connection with my ps2. The problem is that when my ps2 attempts to test the connection, my pc's network card keeps switching from cable disconnected to connected. I have checked both ends of the cable and both are securely in i have also updates my network cards driver. Could anyone please help me with this, thanks.

Thanks hubbardt but i have already posted there and no one seems to be able to help me out. I thought it must be the way i have set up the cable or the option so i thought i would post here.

bugger :x
I don't have a PS2 so can't really help.

You could test your crossover cable by linking 2 PCs together. That will tell you if the cable is ok.

Good Luck !
