I just got my Network Adapter and installed it in my PS2. I'm a college student so my internet is just through the school's network. After registering the PS2 on the school's network I set up my network connection and tried Madden 2005 online. The DNAS verification past and then it when to connect to the EA servers. Everything slowed down there. Soon it said my connection had been lost and asked if I wanted to try to reconnect. I did this a few times but no connection to the server.

I have heard from people around campus that this could be caused by the University's router/firewall. Somehow the school's network ranks "requests" by programs for bandwidth. Programs like LimeWire and Kazaa are immediately moved to the Lowest Priority and thus they never establish a connection. I think this could be the problem. Any ideas on how to get around this??

My idea was using Internet Connection Sharing from my PC and linking the PS2 to the internet through that. I dont know much about ICS though, so I wasn't sure if that would cure my connection issue. Before I go out and buy a secondary ethernet port for my laptop I'd like to know. Thanks...and let me know if you have ANY ideas for how to get this working.
