I have a wireless network in my house with my broadband connection running into a BELKIN Router downstairs.

Upstairs, my son has a PS2 for which I've recently purchased a Network Adaptor (Ethernet), believing that was all I needed !!!

Now I'm completely lost, despite reading up on the subject on several sites.

I'm going to connect the adaptor to the PS2 but then all it presents to me is an ethernet socket. All I have to play with is a spare Belkin Wireless USB Network Adaptor, which is the same as I connect my upstairs PC to the network with.

I'm clearly missing something here or I'm completely lost ....... or both !!!

Can somebody tell me what I need, in layman's terms ?

Any help appreciated !!!
