    i think there is some kind of adapter out there. I'm not sure. I use my laptop. You can plug a ps2 into any computer that has a wireless connection and a extra network card or in my case a socket on the side of the laptop that you can plug the network cable into. You have to get a special netowrk cable to do this, a cross link cable, or sometimes they call it a crossover cable. You can find one at any computer or office suplly store.

    I plug that cable from my ps2 to my wifi enabled laptop, go into "network connections" and right click on my wi-fi connection

    click on the advanced tab and turn sharing on. a few seconds later the laptop will connect to the PS2. You can now get online with your playstation.

    This page kind of explains what i'm saying http://au.playstation.com/ng/ics_setup.jhtml

    except they are using a computer with a hard connection to the internet while I'm substituting that with a wireless one.

    I do this all the time, i drive a truck for a living, some of the truckstops have wi-fi in the parking lot, i just connect everything together and play battlefied modern combat!.

    just did a little bit of research on this..you can also buy one of these
