Okay -
I haven't really been into online games with my console because I lacked a way to connect to the wireless router in the other room.
I thought about Nyko's Wireless Adaptors, discontinued
I thought about Logtech's Playlink. Problem cost, new locally is between $80-$100 (Fry's, BB, CC, Newegg)
There had to be a better solution...
I found it!
Buffalo Technology's Wireless Ethernet Converter!!!
I have found it between $60-75 online at various retailers and $75 at Fry's.
It has 4 ethernet ports!

So that means can connect everything in my room. My PS2, the PC and the Slingbox (when I finally get one)
I originally thought I would have to buy the Playlink and then a router.
No more!
I'll let you know how it went with the installation and config. Im going to pick one up from Fry's if they have it in-stock since I don't get paid until Fri and I would be waiting until at least Monday for anything ordered from Newegg.
If you have more than one console and your PC all in the same place, you should look into this.
