NOTE
If you experience difficulty joining an online game in NBA and are using an Internet sharing device (e.g. broadband router or firewall), you may need to enable Port Forwarding (sometimes called Virtual Server) on the device. Please refer to the manual that came with your Internet sharing device for specific setup instructions.
You will need to forward both UDP and TCP port to the IP address assigned to your PLAYSTATION®2 console. This may require changing your network settings from an "Automatic" IP address (DHCP) to a "Manual" IP address. NBA 2K10 includes a Network Configuration GUI for setting up and modifying these files.
If you continue to experience difficulty joining online games, try bypassing your Internet sharing device by connecting your PLAYSTATION®2 console directly to your DSL or cable modem. In this case, you may need to reconfigure your Network Configuration before your PLAYSTATION®2 console will connect to the Internet.
