Sure you can... sort of. You can run the PS2 into a wireless hub/router/switch, but that's super overkill. However, 99.99% of wireless adapters are either PCI or PC/MAC USB. The Sony network/modem interface is 100% proprietary, so unless it's outboard (as I said, hub/switch/router), you're SOL.

You can plug your Xbox and PS2 into a cheap 4 port (wired) switch and then plug a wireless bridge into the switch (Dlink do a small nifty one). The wireless bridge will then communicate with a wireless router/broadband modem to provide a wireless link to the internet.

If you just want the PS2 connected wirelessly then you only need to connect the wireless bridge to the PS2 Network adaptor. All works like a piece of cake.

Check out dlink.com or .co.uk
