Hi Neo,
I bought a crossover cable from PC world for GBP15 and it did not work. In fact it caused my whole system to crash. However, with a normal ethernet cable (i.e. non-crossover) my system works (hurrah!!!). There were four days of frustration in the middle, however, and a lot of swearing.
Probably everyones system is different. Its a good job that PSO is such a great game otherwise I would have given up on day two. Its a shame that the BBA does not come with better set up instructions for the technically challenged (like me). Its far from being plug in and play.
