ffxi and AOL dial-up?

ginseki · 07-18-2003, 12:41 AM

i live in japan but i'm going to be in america for awhile. i brought my ps2 to play ffxi. i went and bought an american network adapter since my dad only has dial-up. i can't set aol up through the bb unit itself since i have the japanese version installed which doesn't allow for dial-up. and i can't install the american one because i don't have a modchip (and even if i did i think i'd have to format the drive first...).

does anyone know or use aol dial-up to play either the import or beta? i entered the account id (tried with and without @aol.com), password, and local phone number. it connects but says there is a problem loggin in.

any ideas? i think i should just call aol...:confused:

You won't be able to use AOL, even if you enter your username and pass into the PS2 setup.
