It works on *link, that is naplink, pukklink or ps2link.

It will ALSO work on ps2link, even if ps2link didn't exist when it was released.

Have you EVER tried ps2link ? This is where you configure everything about IP. This is like Internet Explorer: you don't have to say to IE your IP address: windows takes care of it. Sames goes with any software that run inside ps2link.

Yes , IE don't need me to tell the local IP, but it need to know remote ip or url.
And the nPort(PC SIDE) I download didn't have a place where I can type the PS2 ip address.
I can run the nPort.elf using PS2LINK,but I can't transfer file without USBCABLE

I only have PS2 AND PC connected by twisted-pair not usb cable

nPort will transfer via the host loader, so if it's Naplink it will transfer over the USB cable, but if it's ps2link it will transfer via the network cable. Because ps2link is already setup to talk to your PC you don't have to configure nPort to do anything, just USE it.

Got it?

Wait, wait...

He said "the nPort, (PC side)" ?! What PC-sided nPort? There's none...

He is probably talking about xPort, which is SharkPort from InterAct which comes with an USB cable

Quick instructions on nPort/PS2Link
- download nPort (not xPort/Sharkport..etc)
- unzip nPort, should get nPort.elf and a saves directory
- download PS2Link
- read the README to see how to enter your PS2's IP address into IPCONFIG.DAT
- run PS2Link using whatever method
- download InLink
- install InLink on your PC using *.msi file
- run InLink on your PC, give it your PS2's IP address, then it should connect.
- If your InLink will not connect to your PS2, then your network is not working, or you gave PS2Link/InLink wrong IP address information
- If InLink working, click on RUN button on top, and locate your nPort.elf, nPort should appear on your PS2 screen
- Now when you copy files from PS2 to PC on the PS2 using joystick, InLink will copy the *.npo file onto your PC

When I unzip the nPort ,I got save directory and there is a npo-x.exe in it .Is it the PC side?
I think there must be a client and a server so it can transfer files.

npo-x.exe is a program use to extract/insert files from/to the .npo files. You can use Save Buidler instead.

The client program is actually PS2Link.

nPort is fine using PS2Link 1.22 (from the Loaders link on this site)/InLink 1.3.7.

My Inlink is 1.3.7,PS2LINK is 1.23 ,but when I try to execute nPort.elf,
nothing changed in my screen.(You can see the image in my last post)

My Inlink and PS2LINK works well on other programs.
