Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into a network connection on your router or hub. Again, the tab on the end of the connector should click into place to ensure a secure connection.
Turn on the PlayStation 2 console and insert the online start-up disc. You will also need a memory card in one of the memory card ports to save your connection settings. This disc is included with the PlayStation 2, and walks the user through the necessary steps to set up the network connection settings on the console. This process includes testing the network connection to ensure the console is connected to the Internet.
