    I need help getting the game online

    First of all, let me say that I have no trouble playing any other PS2 games online, so theres no problem there.
    Now, i can get to the part where it says Testing network environment, and then theis comes up.

    "Unable to transmit using UDP port 5730. You may need to connect directly to the internet or adjust your connection device i.e. router settings etc. Assign DMZ, Port Mapping, Configure NAT Table and other router settings to the console. Individual products may use unique terminology."

    Now, I know you guys'll say refer to dar83's post if this comes up, but the thing is, I cant access my PS2 Network Menu, mainly because I dont know where it is. I think I might not have it because I created an PS2 online account from another game, not by the network access disk. I am using Eircom Netopia if that helps.


    Okay, cancel everything I just said up there, i didnt realize that the network menu is in the game and not in the actually PS2 menu. Now I just need a small bit of help. Could someone tell me where the setup/administration page is on my pc so i can finish it off?

    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Of course you will. :)

    1mb broadband is more than enough to handle any online game, it's the upload that makes the real difference, as we're mostly stuck on 128kbps, which is more than a bit crap. But it is still sufficient one you don't have other people using the connection at the same time. ;)
