You can use Internet Connection Sharing, or ICS. If you're on XP just run the Network Connection Wizard.

-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.

Open up the Network Connection Wizard from your Start->Control Panel->Networking section. Click "Setup or change your home or small office network". Click on "Checklist for creating a network" and then look at ICS to get an idea of what you need to do and a decent pictorial of what your network will look like. Follow the instructions.

(Note: I don't see why you don't just plug an ethernet cable between the PS2 and your wireless router/WAP, if you have one. ICS will work but it's the long, hard way of doing things.)
