I'm tearing my hair out here currently with a DNAS error while trying to connect my PS2 online. It's error 617 and i don't know how to correct it.

I have NTL broadband, and i understand i do not need to pay an extra ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£2 if i just reset my set top box everytime when switching my ethernet cable over from PC to console.

I'm using the PS2 Network disc and when trying to set-up my connection settings for my PS2 i set everything to "auto-detect". It seems to connect to the net somewhat. It seems to ping the servers fine, but always fails at the last moment when it comes to the DNAS stage. It says my connection timed out with error 617.

I just don't know what to do here. The lights at the back of the adapter are flashing yellow, so there's traffic when it pings servers, but it's this damn DNAS which is keeping me out of gaming!?

Please help. Thankyou.
