v12(SCPH-70012) network adapter dead?

[daxtsu]

The last time I used my ps2's[slim] network adapter was in 2007, so I haven't tested it since then, back when I used to play MGO. Anyway, whenever I try to do anything network related with it, it just gets timeout errors. Example: Say I try to ping my ps2 from any PC on my network, it just times out. The network disk says there's no link. I tried hooking it directly to my PC, to my router[the port it's plugged into lights up with ACT, but 100 and FULL, Linksys WRT54G, version 1 I guess..no vX anywhere] and directly to my cable modem, but none of these work. Is the adapter dead? If you need any more info just tell me.
