Is it possible to get a wireless usb adapter to run on the ps2 in order to get the ps2 online?

If you are willing to write the driver. yes.

I know that I need to write the driver and I am familiar with C, but I don't even know where to start-or for that matter, how to execute a program on the ps2... I am an absolute noobie A little help would be greatly appriciated. I was also wondering if there is anyehere I can go with a library of pre-existing drivers.

check the main site www.ps2dev.org and press on start here, then you could get the files from the toolchain folder in cvs (cvs.ps2dev.org but if you use a cvs client you can find the info to connect on code samples section if i remember correctly) and execute it to make it compile all you need, for win you could use the prepared install kit. the main driver are on the ps2sdk project, then you could find other driver, programs on the cvs...

ok, I'm going to be honest here... I dont know how to do ANY of this. Could someone PLEASE either explain to me how to make or get a driver for a usb adapter IN PLAIN ENGLISH and then IN PLAIN ENGLISH explain how to get/run that on my friend's ps2. I've looked at all the manuals and files, and I DON'T GET THEM. I'm trying to do this as a favor for a friend, could someone just help me out?

my 2 cent question :

why don't you simply use a RJ45 wireless adapter ?

you won't even need a driver...

why reinvent the wheel when you can achieve the same goal this way ?

because my buddy is to cheap to buy one. And he doesn't wanna pay for a network adapter

This is a development site, not a "teach noobies how to program" site. Learn to write device drivers for Windows, then come back and ask again. It'll make a lot more sense to you, and be a lot less work for us.
