PS2 Network Adaptor

[MachoMyers]

I have the old style PS2 and never got around to getting a network adaptor. With all my sports games and wanting to play Socom 3 and Star Wars online I was wondering about Network Adaptors. In my small town its hard for me to get to an EB or anything like that so I was looking online (Ebay) and came across both the offical sony internet adaptor and also one by LINKSYS that apparently connects to the USB port in the front of the PS2, and is much cheaper then the offical one. I have DSL internet. Anyone have any suggestions on what I should do or have any experience with either of these?...Is it even worth the trouble?

I have the official one becuase I'm not sure if all games support the USB online thing that your talking about. I would say the safe bet is to buy the official one. I got my official one and I haven't had any problems with it. Hope that helps!
