Skippy438 Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 Finally online with my PS2 ... almost. I'm connecting through my college's LAN, and it (RE:Outbreak) seems to be connecting up until it's actually time to play a game. I used the automatic setup when I first installed it, is there some setting that I missed? I just really don't want the $90 I spent to be ultimately useless until I go home. I tried searching the PS2 forums, but those guys seem to be a-holes, so I didn't want to post anything there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote

McKlown Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 You might have to talk to the people in charge of your college's LAN, too. I get the impression from various game forums(like Lineage 2) that colleges tend to block off the ports needed for some games. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Yeap, if they have firewalls in place (and most likely they do), it will intereferece with most online games if not cripple them entirely. Quote
wolfx Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Stupid question: I don't own a PS2 and am very interested in these online gaming..... Does the PS2 connect to games through the Internet/online games through your usual ISP DSL/Cable etc? Are the online game servers international? Quote
