do i have this correct???

""It's also important to NOTE that in order to function correctly, HD Advance needs to 'hijack' the DEV9 interface (which includes both the Network Adaptor and PS2 HDD) and in doing so it renders the N/A no good simply because it cant load the correct Network drivers required for authenticating PS2 DNA$-equipped games on-line. ""-------does this mean that once i use hdadvance, i cant get online and game?

This simply means the NA no longer functions as an NA when useing HDL/HDA and you wont beable to us the NA's ability other then to us HDL/HDA with your HDD. The NA with still function properly when your not using HDL/HDA.

cuz a wierd prob occurred, i got the ps2 hooked thru the comp, every time i fired up the ps2 (like a week ago..before i started playin w/ stuff) the "connected"box popped up in the cpu taskbar. since a couple days ago, the comp is showing the ps2 network disconnected no matter what i do..but everything was plugged in good after like 100 checks., heres where it gets wierd. i just noticed(after my last post) that when the hdloader is in the ps2, turn on the ps2 and on the comp --ps2 network is now connected @ 100mb/s. cool. however, any other disc t all in the ps2, turn it on you can hear the hd spin, ps2 connects to comp,for like 2 sec, the hd stops spinning and on the comp, ps2 now disconnected. it only works with the hdloader in. i cant figure it out. i made a patched back up (thanx sprat) and wanna try it but cant, any ideas???

Take your HDD out and use the NA with out HDL.

[barkroc2]

dont work, with the hd OUT and t h u g in the ps2, no connection found. it only connects w/ the hdloader disc in

[spedmetal]

Strange, well something is misconfigured or not connected up propely as HDL makes no changes to your NA physically that I can think of that would cause such a problem.
