THUG PAL online on ISDN 64K and aother questions

[SurfDrifter]

I bought Tony Hawk Undergound and i read in the manual about the feature of adding your face on the game. I'm on ISDN 64K

I don't own an Network adapter, but i'd like to know if i buy one, will i be able to at least download my face? i know that most online games require broadband and that is understood, but could i at least do that?
Buy the way, what are the minimum requirements of internet connection for playing this game?

Also, if i buy a network adapter, would i be able to transfer my saves from/to the PC from/to the Memory Card or do i need another gadget?

Also, for keyboards. Do i need an explicitly PS2 USB keyboard or ANY USB keyboard would work?

Thank you

The US version of this game doesn't need broadband but I don't Know about PAL version.

yes, you can transfer saves to pc with network adaptor with a utility called nPort but the nPort saves are not popular like xport and sharkport saves, so you can use it only for making backup from your saves and free up your memory card.

Thank you so much for your reply!

I guess that it won't make a difference if it's a PAL or NTSC, since players connect on servers that (i guess) don't transmit NTSC or PAL data! Thus, it would be the same for PAL.

This utility (nPORT) is freeware or is it something that accompanies the network adapter? Because, I'll i need is what you said. Backup of my games...

Oh, and do you have any clue about keyboards? Nah, if you knew you'd have alreadly told me!

Thank you again!


EDIT: Oh, i found nPort, napLink and napClient! Interesting it doesn't need any network adapter!

Yeah, napLink-napClient doesn't need network adaptor because it works with a usb link.
Pukklink-Inlink needs network adaptor, these set of programs allow you to run programs on your PS2 , in this case that program is nPort.

(sorry, I don't have any usb keyboard)
