LAN which is short for "Local Area Network" is just that. You have to have a local network setup. This can be done using a router. Instead of connecting to a master list server which is hosted by a company, in LAN mode your PS2 scans the local network for other PS2's. Usually the LAN mode is identical to the Online Mode, except setup for local play. | ||||

In fact, you could play anyone across the country or around the world provided they owned a compatible version of the game you were wanting to play. You just need to use programs like Xlink Kai or the GIT in order to play. If a game has LAN options, then it doesn't really matter if/when the official online support ends; we can sit here and play the game to our heart's content. |

Hey matthewj, we try to discourage repeat topics, and keeping discussions in-line with the original post.
For continuing the discussion on LAN Tunneling, which was originally created by you in the General Online forum, lets continue talking over there: http://playstation2.onlineconsoles.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2449 |
