Alright heres the situation, I have a ps2 with a internet adapter and all iv used it before with 56k. Now 2 yrs later i wanna play online with my Cable Connection. Problem is my main comp downstairs that has the router/ Modem is too far from the Tv down there So i pretty much excluded that(for now). Up stairs in my room i have a Pc with Ethernet Ports in the back of my tower (Compaq Presario Blah blah blah ) I have a Wireless Belkin Pci card to connect to the Lynksas Router down stairs, Now iv tried going From the Back of my Ps2(online Adapter) with a Ethernet cable to the Back of my Pc Into the ethernet port , Iv set up All the online junk but when getting to the screen were it tests to connect to the network or online it fails , Any help getting around this or Having the same problem or what?????

P.S.: the error message im getting is " Ethernet cable not connected to a network

did you setup ICS on the pc that you're connecting the ps2 to? also,
if you're using a regular ethernet cable that may be the problem as you would need a crossover cable to connect to the pc from ps2.
