Playstation 2 to Widescreen LCD Monitor-- Help

I recently purchased a 23" Acer widescreen 1080P monitor at a Black Friday sale, and I love this new monitor. It's twice as big as my old one and it is really nice. Anyway, I've heard stories of people hooking up video game systems (in my case a Playstation 2 would be what I would like to hook up) to their monitors. My neighbor a few houses down has his 360 hooked up to his aging CRT type monitor. I don't know the exact details but i've looked up a lot of information on how to do so, and it's all very confusing. First, i'd like to point out that that in addition to the standard VGA cable to plug into my desktop tower, it also features a DVI-D jack. As I mentioned above I would like to start hooking up my Playstation 2 to my monitor and playing on the widescreen. I know it can be done and it has been done, I just would like to know a simple way to start doing it, and if possible, items I could purchase at my local Best Buy so that I could play my Playstation on my monitor again. Any and all opinions/tips to accomplish this are welcomed. I am 17 years old and I have about 50 games for my Playstation 2, most of which I have owned since my childhood. I would like to fully enjoy these games more often, so please help!

Connecting Playstation 3 to LCD Monitor HELP!!

hey guys im new at this and i need some help please
i have a ASUS 23inch Widescreen LCS monitor and supports HDMI and HDCP.
i have done some research on how to set this up. people told me i jus need a HDMI cable in which i already purchased. is there anything else i do?
for sound i would like to connect a speaker system in which im still researching for a decent one. any suggestions? anything under 100 dollars is at best for me
also what cables or adapters would i need to have in order to connect the speaker system?

You're trying to use a PS3 with a PC monitor? I thought that couldn't be done, but I'm not sure.
Why wouldn't it?
PC monitors and LCD HDTVs are nearly indistinguishable from each other now, at least when connecting via HDMI.
It should simply be a case of:
HDMI from PS3 to PC monitor
Audio output (depends on your audio system) from PS3 to audio system. (Actually, this is one of the few differences between PC monitors and TVs with HDMI connectivity - most PC monitors don't have speakers, TVs do and support HDMI audio.)
In my case, I have HDMI to my 46" TV and optical audio to a Yamaha receiver, but could easily move the PS3 to my "office" and connect to my 24" Gateway monitor and my other Yamaha receiver. (Yes, I have TWO Yamaha HTIB systems, one in the living room and one in the "office".)

Help with Connecting Playstation 3 to mac mini wireless.....

Well, I finally figured out how to share my wireless connection from my mac mini throughout my house.... it wasnt even in the network area, you have to go over to sharing in systems menu, and set up "internet sharing" through your ethernet port... after that it opens up this little mac into a wireless access point to your local ethernet throughout...... but............. even after my iphone, mac, windows laptop, etc.... log on easily... I cannot, Cannot!! get my ps3 to register an IP address. i have everything set up right, and thinking it was because i was ethernet linked through my dads router also downstairs "the main router of the house" and it was blocking me..... i did some studies... well i had another wireless router in the house.. so i plugged my ethernet into it, activated it and set it up.... it works.... then i try the ps3.... voilllaa it works...... so its not the main router blocking..... Why does a shared internet to ethernet mac system not understand what to do with a playstation 3 wirelessly???

My Mac mini is connected to the internet by Ethernet cable to my ISP's Arris gateway. I am sharing the Ethernet connection to two iPod Touches via AirPort from my Mac mini. This is how I configured the Mac to share the connection;
1. In Sys Prefs/Sharing I highlighted Internet Sharing (do not check the box)
2. Share your connection from: Ethernet (from the dropdown menu)
3. To computers using: AirPort (check the little box)
4. Press the button AirPort Options...
5. Name your Network
6. I use Automatic for the channel
7. I encrypt my network using a 40-bit WEP key
8. For a non-Apple device you must use only a 5 alphanumeric character, 40-bit WEP password or only a 13 alphanumeric character 128-bit WEP password
9. Press OK
10. Check the box for Internet Sharing
11. Answer any dialog boxes that pop up

PS3 / PlayStation Network set-up help needed

I am trying to get my PS3 to connect to the PlayStation Network. When I try to connect to the PlayStation Network (using my PS3) system, I get a message saying: "The connection with the PlayStation Network timed out."
From there I go to, Network Settings, Internet Connection Test, then I get a message saying: "The sign-in (e-mail address) or password is incorrect."
I'm not sure if I need to make any adjustments to my Network settings, through my (Actiontec MI424-WR Rev. E) FIOS router? Any feedback which would lead to a solution where this problem is fixed would be appreciated, Thank You!

I just set up my PS3, so here is what you need to do.
You will need the following information from your Verizon router:
SSID (the name of your FiOS router)
WEP 64 Bit password.
You can find these things by going to the following URL: http://192.168.1.1 . You will need to know the log-in to your router to see the info. Your log-in to the router will usually be "admin". Your password will usually be either "password" or "password1".
From there you will be able to look up the above information and write them down. If you are connecting the PS3 to the internet via WiFi, please make sure that the WiFi is turned "on" on your router.
Then go to the settings on your PS3 and look for the internet set up. Input the info specific to your router and you should be ready to rock n' roll.

Help Port Forwarding My playstation 3!

My Router: WRT54GS
Well, I have already finished opening all the ports on the routers main page, but I have absolutely no idea what to do next!
I opened or forwarded like 8 Ports, so it would be much more compatible with my PS3 and online gaming, but I don't know what to do next! I made a static IP, but I've been hearing that you need to assign a static IP to the PS3. How exactly do I do that? What IP address should I assign my PS3?

Don't use the IP Address assigned to the computer, instead use a different(unique) IP Address(like 192.168.1.60) for your Play Station...While Port Forwarding on your router you should make sure to open the Ports for the static ip address used on your Play Station...

I'm using a WRT54G2 Router. It's wired to a Motorola Surfboard modem. I can't access the manual config 192.168.1.1 and two other computers that are wireless in the house rely on my access point to be able to use the internet. Problem is I'm getting that good o'l "You are connected to the access point, but the internet cannot be found." I've tried assigning static IP's, power cycling, release/renew in IPCONFIG, I've whispered sweet nothings into my PC's ear...etc...etc...etc... I CAN access the manual config through the one laptop when it's wired to the modem though. Please for the love of everything someone help me!!!!!

Are you trying to access 192.168.1.1 wirelessly?   If so, stop doing this. Wireless access to 192.168.1.1 often fails. Use a computer that is wired to the router when you want to change router settings.
1) I assume that the "IPCONFIG /ALL" info that you posted was obtained when your computer was wired directly to your modem -- is that correct?
2) When you did the "IPCONFIG /ALL", was your computer wired to the modem with ethernet cable, or USB cable?
3) Your network should be setup like this:
Motorola Surfboard -- WRT54G2 )))     ((( wireless computer(s)
                                    |--- wired computer
Motorola Surfboard ethernet port wired to WRT54G2 Internet port, using ethernet cable.
Wired computer connected to a LAN port on the WRT54G2, using ethernet cable.
Nothing connected to USB port of Motorola Surfboard.
Wireless computers connect directly (and wirelessly) to WRT54G2, not to your wired computer.
Is above the way your system is setup? If not, how is your system setup?
4) Please clarify the problem that you are having. Are you saying that your computer simply cannot access 192.168.1.1 , or that it cannot access the Internet, or that you cannot get any of your computers to access the Internet through the WRT54G2?    Are you trying to connect this computer by wire or wirelessly to the WRT54G2?
5) Can any computer access the Internet through the WRT54G2?

No, I'm trying to acess it through a wired computer. The computer I'm on right now is wired to the access point which is wired to the motorola modem. I can access the login page(as well as the internet) through the computer wired to the router(which, as stated just a few sentences ago, I'm currently using), but when i type in admin for the password it literally kicks me right back into the login screen with both username and password feilds blank. My entire system is setup the way you described that it should be ethernet cable and all. Trust me that was the first thing I checked. The IPCONFIG /ALL is the status of the computer wired to the router. The other two computers in the house (one is a laptop with wireless card and the other is a PC that I bought a wireless card for) cannot access the internet. They used to be able to until recently and I've made no changes to any of the settings.
I also tryed power cycling the system. It granted wireless access to the wireless computers as well as my playstation 3, BUT, I lost internet access on the wired computer. Imagine my frustration. I power cycled again then I was back to square one. No wireless access but access with the wired pc. It's not set to a static IP address either.

D) Have you upgraded the router's firmware?
E) After the firmware upgrade, did you reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch?
F) You said that the "IPCONFIG /ALL" was obtained when you were connected to the WRT54G2 router. But this looks like IPCONFIG data from connection to the Motorola Surfboard modem. Are you sure this IPCONFIG /ALL is from connection to the WRT54G2?
G) Have you been running unsecured wireless?   Or are you using encryption? If you are using unsecured wireless, perhaps your neighbor logged into your router (by accident or intentionally) and changed your login password.
I would suggest that you reset your router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
Please use the following procedure to reset your router:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is likely dead. Report back with this problem.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt.   Report back with this problem.
If you need additional help, please state the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

My apologies for the delay in response, things have been hectic lately. Alrighty, I did all that you said and here are some interesting results, I'll break down the results by each machine that a fiddled with:
Wired Desktop PC:
-I got no response when trying to ping the router
-Could not access the 192.168.1.1 configuration screen, not even the prompt for username and password
-When using the installation disk AND the installation program i downloaded off the Linksys website it would not detect the router.
Wireless Laptop(this is where i think it gets interesting):
-I was able to fully install and automatically configure the router by using the installation disk
-I could ping and get full response from the router both wirelessly and while it was directly wired to the router
-I could also access the configuration menu 192.168.1.1 in my web browser
-I also had a backup copy of the latest firmware for the router on my flash drive, so I updated the firmware through the laptop.
-The laptop was using the router as it's access point, however the internet could not be found.
If I wasn't at a total loss before I tried all this, I certainly am now. Could it be a problem with the network settings on the PC that is wired? Perhaps a faulty ethernet port? Your thoughts?
Well, that's where it left off, I got no responses back from anyone after the last post. Help!!!

As you are able to access your router's web interface you should now try to re-configure it...

Need help choosing how to extend my existing home network to my detached garage?

I have done as much research as possible on this scenario but cannot seem to match the ideal solution with my wants. Perhaps I simply just do not understand networking as well as I thought I did. Either way, any helpful information or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Objective: Extend my wireless network to my detached garage.
My current ISP provider is Time Warner Cable. I have RoadRunner Extreme, which in my area gives consistent speeds of 50 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload when I am connected via ethernet cable. When I upgraded to the "Extreme" package i found out I was forced to use their Motorola SB6580 ... its a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem + wireless router. I was able to access the Motorola's setup options on the internet and I disabled the wireless function. This has allowed me to use my Time Capsule as the primary router to provide wireless access on my home network. I have not had any issues with this setup and is my preferred way to operate.
I have recently moved my home office to the 2nd story of my detached garage and need to extend my wireless network to meet the demands of all my gear. I have decided to achieve this goal by going with one of the following 3 options:
1.) enable the wireless function on the motorola modem making it the primary router. move my time capsule out to the office and use it in bridge mode. However I do not think I understand bridge mode correctly. I thought the secondary router (in this case my TC) in bridge mode needed to be connected w/ an ethernet cable at all times to enable this feature? If I understand similar networking discussions I will lose the ethernet ports with this option? If this isnt called Bridge mode once i take away the ethernet cable what is it "technically" called?
2.) buy a 2nd airport extreme base station and create the same type of wireless network extension setup. The difference here is I would leave my motorola's wireless features disabled, use 2 apple products that speak apples to apples wirelessly and relieve myself of all the headaches involved with a neopolitan setup. This seems like the obvious choice b/c Apple products are much more user friendly, but I dont want to spend the $200 on a new router if I can achieve a comparable setup by just enabling the equipment I already have.
3.) use either of these 2 scenarios above & go buy a 150' ethernet cable to join them together. if this is the case wouldnt a $50 hub suffice on the end of the cable? I dont necessarily need to have wireless, just reliable connectivity. I can access the existing wireless network now, but download speeds are not great and things really start to slow down when i have multiple clients connected. I would rather not have to drill through exterior walls, bury conduit and install learn how to install data wall plates, but i will if this is the pros far out way the cons.
Current modem/router placement: if standing @ the front door of my 1 story house facing out towards the street my motorola modem/router is in the front right-hand corner of the house.
Distance location of the detached garage office setup: if standing @ my front door my my work area is in the far back left corner of my property. it is approx 175' from the router and on the 2nd story of the garage. I said 150' cable earlier b/c i could relocate the router to a bedroom on the opposite end of the house, however this would eleminate the current wired status of the items connected to it and I would prefer to keep them wired in.
clients connected in the house: (4) apple tv's; Roku; Xbox; Wii; Playstation 3; (2) Lenovo laptops; iPad; (2) Blackberry's; (2) iPhones; iPod touch; (2) wireless netowrk printers; (2) smart tv's ... a handful of these are currently wired into the time capsule now which provides an uninterupted viwing experience for the MLB package. This of course trumps all opportunity costs involved with moving the router. There is nothing more frustrating than a screen buffering in the botton of the 9th inning after you've sat there for 3 hours.
clients connected in the office: (2) 27" imacs; apple tv; iPad; network printer; Wii; Harmony Link universal remote; Mac Book Pro ...
I have approx 5TB of digital media that is shared over the network via shared iTunes libraries that I would like to access as well. iCloud helps with all of our household gadgets as far as acessibility but with all the backups going on simutaneously it also creates headaches when you need the throughput. I need to do a better job of managing those settings. nonetheless, I would like some guidance on the best way to extend my current netowrk, suggestions for better scenarios i did not mention and thus am probably not aware of and any networking 101 schooling if it doesnt sound like i understand the way bridge mode/network extension works. sorry for the long post and thank you for your time & help.

Ethernet beats all other solutions hands down..
A single ethernet connection from wherever is the closest point in the house to the garage office... wins. You can plug a router working as AP and switch or pure switch on to it. Get a cabler in to do the job.. and they can probably figure it out and do the whole job whilst you scatch your head.. yes you will pay for it.. but a cabler knows how to do it. And most likely leave the inside network exactly as it is. Since office is important to be reliable.. there is one and one only reliable method.. ethernet.
If the garage and house are on one electrical circuit.. which is doubtful if it is a separate building then EOP adapters can often work well.. They do not handle earth leakage protection, breakers (rather than fuses) or meters at all well.. but if they are simply all connected to power.. behind the same meter and using old fashioned fuse box.. EOP rated at 200mbps or some now are 500mbps can work reasonably well. Speed about the same as wireless at its best but if it works when installed will generally not change with the weather, moon, and wind direction which wireless is liable to do.
Wireless bridging.. hmm avoid if possible. For reliable connection no.. apple products can do wireless repeater but as you mentioned that turns off the ethernet ports except for the Express.. that is the only unit you can use as a bridge and plug a switch into it. Why Apple why??
So if you want to bridge two points by wireless buy specialised wireless bridge.. that means an AP in the house plugged into the existing network.. and AP unit perhaps on the outside of the garage.. or in windows if you have a window in the house that looks at a window in your office. Look at products from companies like ubiquiti.. they are not too expensive but professional equipment and designed for precisely this kind of work.
Hence the reliability is dramatically better than domestic stuff.. and will require a lot less work to maintain the link.
Conclusion.. wire it.
Unless you rent the house.. an investment in ethernet cabling install once properly and forget .. beats every other solution even if it costs x5 as other solutions.

I tried being the most descriptive I could

I am only able to connect to the internet on my main computer.
What IP does your main computer get.. ?? Post a screenshot if you can as it helps to see the details.
When you open the airport utility on the main computer.. click on the TC what errors does it show?
They will list in the summary.
What mode is the TC in? If the setup went wrong it might be bridged when it should be in router mode..
Remember any time to change things around with cable modems you MUST shut down the modem as well.. it cannot change the MAC address of the first item easily so need to be off.. a few minutes at least.. sometimes up to 20min or longer. Make sure the TC captures the public IP on the wan interface.. which is the only way this will work with a pure modem.
The most recent TC can still have issues.. new AC version TC and AE have the Max amount of issues with SB6121 and 6141.. there seems to be some ethernet issue between them..
What model TC do you have??
You can slow the LAN port down or specify the actual speed in the Gen1-4.

Power Spike Threw My Network? PLEASE HELP!!!

Tuesday night we had a power spike that seems to have killed my network. I wanted to know has this happened tpo anyone else and if so how did you fix it. My problem is this,my ISP is Mediacom, I have a 10 MB connection, a Linksys WRT54GS V7 firmware 7.50.2 and I cannot get anything to connect to my wireless network. My pc that is wired into my router is fine. Getting good connection. I also have a Playstation 3 that connects wireless, Xbox 360 that connects wireless through a Linksys WGA54G, a pc that connects trough a Belkin wireless desktop card, and a Nintendo Wii that also connects wireless. Now Tuesday during the day everything was connected and fine. Wednesday I woke up to find that everything on my network had reset themselves and would no longer connect to the existing network. So I tried to reset everything on a new network. I couldn't get anything to connect. I replaced my router with the same model number and upgraded the firmware to v7.50.2. I called Mediacom and they reset my internet connection saying that my "modem was getting too many signals form my electronics and not my router"(?). Everything came up fine only to go down after about 5 mins (right after I tried to connect my PS3). Afterwards I called Mediacom back had them reset my connection and only tried my pc. It would connect but it would say little or no connectivity. Called Linksys support and a nice lady named Marie told me to change my from TKIP to AES change my channel to 11 and so forth and so on. It worked for about 5 mins and went down again. I called them back and again they changed my channel and lower my MTU. This time it would work but it was incredibly slow. Now I have no idea what to do and am quickly coming to my wit's end. Please help.

I dunno dude. This is killing me. Mediacom won't help me because they don't support in home networks. I have never had a problem before now. I had the original router for almost a year. Power spikes are quite common throughout this area and it was always fine. Now all of a sudden I have this. I dunno what to do. I need all the help that I can get. I have never had a problem with any of my Linksys products. Just run the CD and plug in everything and I'm online. Simple. Lately I have seen more of my admin screen than I had ever hoped to.

AirPort Network Setup Help

I'm pretty good with hardward, but admittedly, I'm kind of a n00b when it comes to wireless networks. So I purchased an AirPort Extreme Base Station in 2010 and set it up to run my wireless network as well as a 5GHz version of the network as well. Unfortunately, my modem is on the opposite side of the house as most of my wireless devices, i.e. PlayStation 3, MacBook Pro, etc... I was noticing a weak signal, so I purcahsed an AirPort Express to extend the range of the existing network (not the 5GHz network, the regular one). This was perfect, everything was running great. Through my ISP I signed up for 10Mbps, I was getting high 9's in the room the modem was in, as well as accross the house on the extended network.
Fast forward two years later, Apple has released new Extreme and Express base stations, I'm not sure each update consisted of, and maybe the newer versions will work, so that's why I'm asking. I got the new AT&T LTE iPad and I'm getting 38Mbps on my LTE network, yes, you read that right, a whopping 38Mbps! Needless to say, I was preferring this over my home Wi-Fi Network, so I called up my ISP and requested 25Mbps, still slower, but at least I'm not eating up my data. The network is set-up exactly the same way, I didn't change it. Problem is, when I bring my iPad into the room with modem, I get 25Mbps, but when I'm back in my living area, on the extended network, I still only get 9 to 10Mbps Considering I'm rarely in the room with the modem, it's as of I'm paying extra money for no additional bandwidth, which makes me a sad panda... So, the question is, does my current Express not support 25Mbps or am I 'Doing it wrong.' If I need to pay the $99 for another Express, I'd be happy too, but considering I bought the Extreme and Express at the same time, and the Extreme handles the 25 fine, I'm thinking I have it set-up incorrectly. As I understand it, the only differences between Extreme and Express are that one is duel band, guest network is possible, more USB's and ethernet ports, etc...

The Extreme is in the other end of the house wirelessly extending.
I have it set up as a roaming network.
A roaming network is one in which the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme would be connected using a wired Ethernet connection.
Your setup cannot be a roaming network if.....The Extreme is in the other end of the house wirelessly extending.
Can your clarify on your setup?
Do you think this is the best set up, or would you suggest doing it differently?
A roaming network, with a wired Ethernet connection between wireless routers would be the best way to set up virtually any network, since there is no signal loss in a wire.....and a great deal of signal loss (and speed) in a wireless connection.
I have an old Airport express A1088, can anything be done with it?!?!
The old Express could be configured to create a wireless network if it were wired back to the Time Capsule.
It could also "join" the wireless network wirelessly for use with AirTunes....but it would not extend the wireless signal, since it does not have that capability.
In order to administer the older Express, you would need a Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC.
Sorry, cannot help on the Smart TV - Media Centre question since I don't have that type of setup.

Port forwarding for playstation 3

Hi there.
Seem to be having some very frustrating problems with our Time capsule.
I'm not much good with it, technically, however I'm trying to open/move/forward/map (I've no idea!)
port: 3074 to enable a specific online game to work on my playstation.
I've not got any connection troubles between the capsule and the console, but from hat I've learnt,
I need to somehow 'forward port 3074'.
I think I know what I'm doing until after confirming everything and clicking 'update' after I've entered the port number, I'm asked to make corrections before the airport can update!
It specifically asks me to enter the 'beginning DHCP address', which i've discovered is 192.163.1.1,
however it then asks for the 'ending DHCP address', which to be honest I have no idea.
I'm really not clued up at all on any of this, I just want to play a game on my PS3!
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi dlmatthews and welcome to the forum, i've had the same issue, you can't port forward to both, I just DMZ my PS3 and port forwarded to my another PS3 in the household.
