    i don't think you can connect PS2's through a wireless connection, while PS3 on the other hand will have that feature.

    I bet you could! You wouldn't get much distance. It may be very difficult, i am not sure what devices you would need, but it must be possible.

    You can get PLENTY of distance. BUT it's expensive as you need a wirless router on each PS2
    It woudl need configured from another port as normally these go look to the host for setup info and vice versa. Edimax have thought all that out and produced one pre-confgured to do the business - http://www.edimax.nl/final/products/...EW-7206GAb.pdf
    BUT again at a high cost

    thats about right
    netgear do a good gaming router to be connected specialy to ps2
    so at the internet connection u'll have a wireless router which willl transmit the internet signal.
    u can also use this in u have a lan party with ps2's all of u can hook up ps2 togehter and for instance play gt4.

    Just remember if someone has a clunky old microwave you'll all lose connection for a while

    Thats what i thought, when i said, you wouldn't get much distance i meant like you wouldn't be able to play your mate down the road.

    You can get up to 200-300metres and with a Pringles tin can extend that to a couple of kms

    There are new a few extenders availabel for 802.11g as well, but you need to place them in between the ends to get max extension !!
