If there is another topic for this, I'm sorry, but I'm having some problems getting online. I've tried three seperate username/password combos, including my sega.com one and two of my aol.com ones and it still won't let me online...
I need to know some things about the username like which one to use, and also if I need to know if I have to add @aol.com to the end of it. Please help!

First of all, AOL dialup is not compatible with PSO. In fact, no ISP that uses proprietary software is compatible (AOL, NETZERO, etc). You're only real chance of getting online is to use ICS (internet connection sharing.) You'll need to set it up on your pc (btw what OS are you using?) then you will need a crossover cable (NOT a standard cat5) to go from your pc to your GC. Read through this sticky for more details on how to get it set up:

Alrighty... I've acquired a working MSN account... but it still won't let me on! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

I was wondering if anyone could help... I need to know if I hook it up into my computer, if I add "@msn.com" and, well, anything else would help...

Did you not read the sticky?

05Q: I have dial-up MSN. How do I connect to PSO?

05A: In order to connect to MSN, fill out all of your connection information as per normal, but when you fill in your username, type "MSN / yourusername", eliminating the spaces and quotes.


I take that to mean it should be like this:

MSN/yourusername
