I'm getting a wireless router hooked up, so I can have my PS2 hooked up with my Cable connection. How does that work from the wireless router to my PS2???

just get a router and run it with an ethernet cable (much cheaper and better connection)

You can run some cat 5 from your router to your ps2 pretty cheaply. Or you can try and ask the RR Tech to do it and see what they would charge.
Just what I was thinking pitbull

Are they giving the router to you for free? If so keep it. I would.

Ok this is what the guy told me to just do...He told me to have the technician hook up my modem next to the ps2 so its not choppy, he said he doesnt recomend wireless ps2...so have the modem installed near the ps2, and then make my computer downstairs wireless...Does that sound good?? Or will it cause problems or what?

Wireless may not be as reliable as an ethernet connection but most of the time it should work ok. If they arent included the wireless adapter for the down stairs pc then I would just buy some ethernet cable and run it from the router to the computer. Of course only if it would be cheaper than buying an adapter.
