[Connectivity] DNAS Error -612?!

Just attempted to network my PS2. All configured fine and all tests passed but whenever you try and play an online game or register i get "-612: No response from DNS Server"?? yet it just passed the dns test, all tests for that matter. im using internet connection sharing with winxp pro connected directly via a crossover cable. Also tried with (windows) firewall disabled still no joy. Any ideas??

Re: [Connectivity] DNAS Error -612?!

that one usually relates to firewall/ closed ports stuff.

Try opening the ports listed in this FAQ:

I have this same problem!!!!! I'm not that network literate and I don't know if I can do this. It's really annoying though!

Its really irritating. My isp say contact sony, sony say contact ur isp, although in all fairness my isp made the bold suggestion of... "Have u tried opening the relevant ports on ur firewall?" to which i reply "my firewall is disabled because that was my theory too" to which i got the reply... "urmm... I think you should contact sony" doh!! Ull laugh when i tell u i work as an IT\Network administrator... lmfao

Do you have modchips installed? Here's from Toxic's readme

-> Disable Mode

When playing online games it is often necessary to disable the modchip so you
do not get a DNAS error while connecting to the online game server. To
disable DMS4, hold down L1 on controller 1 as the PS2 is booting. You will
see a message saying that the modchip has been disabled. Insert your game and
reset the console - the modchip will not be disabled and will stay disabled
until the PS2 is placed in standby.
