Required Materials:

Step 1:

Step 2:
Download and install WinPcap.
Step 3.
Click System > Settings in PCSX2.
Click Game List > Add to select the directory with your .iso files.
Click BIOS > Browse to select the directory with your self-sourced BIOS image (I will not provide this, do not ask) and select the BIOS in the box below.
Click Network & HDD, check the box next to Ethernet, select PCAP Bridged from Ethernet Device Type, and then select Ethernet from Ethernet Device.
Step 4.
Make sure that your Network Start-up Disc is in your DVD drive or a legally ripped backup .ISO file is on your PC and boot up the disc/image file.
Step 5.
Follow the same steps as the hardware PS2 guide starting from step 3 to set-up the static IP address and custom DNS addresses.
Note, use the same static IP as the PC you are playing on.
