PS2 Online beta testers!

I\'m testing the dial-up modem services, so I can\'t be dependable with broadband matters.  I do think that you need to purchase the cable though.  Cygnus should be able to answer your question better than I.

Anyways, I just got off the phone with one of the beta-support guys.  The number in the manual is toll-free so go ahead and call if you need the help.  Unfortunately for me, it is too early in beta-testing and they don\'t have full documentation that can help me yet.  So no online gaming on the PS2 for me until Monday at the earliest, unless I can figure it out myself.

At least I did find out how to reset the PS2.  If you get stuck in the set-up browser, you\'ll have to hold down reset for about 8-10 seconds to reset or go to stand-by.  So just hold it down for a bit longer til it resets itself.

Laguna, I had probs with my dial up too. I have 10 digits for a dial up access number. Do YOU??

If so, put the main 7 digit number as the ACCESS number, then put the area code portion as "special dial" number in the next menu.

My DSL can\'t work so I got a dial up acct. Support told me to use my computer modem in line with the ethernet port of the bba, but my comp is too far away and uses phone jacks anyway:(

stoopid dial up!!!!!!

I did get on with dial up though and played one game of Fraquency and chatted a bit:)

I\'ll check back tomorrow, gotta go get drunk, watch The Chronicle, Stargate, and get laid:)
(Nice being married)
See you tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111111

I\'m gonna have to try that tomorrow (gots ta get laid too).  It never occurred to me that I had to use an area code number for local access.  Doesn\'t help when it says not to use it on the screen, lol.

Btw, what ISP are you using?  If I can\'t get it going with MSN, I\'m defecting.

i dont have time now, but I will help you guys out monday, gf is yelling at me its time to go...


also the power off button does work, just gotta hold it down longer..

local isp (blackhole.com)

Well, my dial up number IS in a different area code (952, not my 612). So I need to enter it. No extra charges though.

Man I really suck at Frequency:( I was better at it at home... I wonder if they jacked up the difficulty for the online version??

Gotta get a usb keyboard, chatting with the dual shock sucks.
