ps2 online question
 

This isn't about having a modchip and going online, but if you have your ps2 hooked up to the internet...since it technically has an ip on your home network, could you "log" onto your ps2 so to speak..and put things onto your memory cards? basically is there any way to put things onto your ps2 via computer other then the sharkport.....

The new Action Replay Max lets you download codes to your ps2 via the PS2 network.

Also with your network adaptor you can transfer your save files to your PC and vice versa. this is good for store old save files on your PC and free your memory card for new games.

how do i do that? w/ the network adapter that is

Here is a tutorial in Spanish,

Use google translator and paste above link there for English translation.

do you know if this can only be done w/ the dms3 modchip? b/c they only make references to it...b/c i have the messiah 2

The DMS3 just lets you boot the prog off your memory card(takes up tons of space). You just have to use a cd to boot the prog for other chips.

It works fine with messiah2, just don't forget enter your PC and PS2 IP address correctly in IPCONFIG.DAT file, otherwise your cd will be useless.

cool thanks for all the help!

how do you know what the ip of the ps2 is? is there a way to find out?

I've connected my PS2 directly to PC Ethernet card and I use Sisoft Sandra IP network information for finding PS2 IP address.
