Answer 1

Use a bridge to go from wired ethernet to wireless ethernet. Here is the process:

• Connect an ethernet cable between the bridge and the PS2
• Assign the bridge an IP address using DHCP or Static IP from your router
• Use that IP address as the gateway address of the PS2
• Assign an IP address to the PS2 using DHCP or Static IP from the bridge

Answer 2

Some wifi extenders have ethernet ports, so they act as a bridge from wired to wireless. I personally use a Netgear WN2000RPTv2 for this very purpose.
