I have the new PS2 (slimmer one) and I have broadband internet. I was just wondering what cables you need and where do you plug them in so I can have access to multiplayer games?

you need a cat-5 network cable, they're fairly cheap online (newegg.com) but seriously overpriced at local stores. I bought a 100 ft cable for $6 plus shipping through newegg. The same cable through walmart would have cost me over $50. As for the other question, i dont own a ps2, but there should be a slot on the back to where the cable will fit. Connect the cable to your console and modem and game on!!

yea also make sure you set all your settings on the ps2 accordingly to your broadband service. It took me like 2 hrs before i finally realized i had to type in my ip address.
