Is your Battlefield 2 updated to 1.41? If not download it first and before, delete the installed Project Reality client. After you have totally updated your Battlefield 2 to 1.41 install the Project Reality again.
If your game is updated this might get tricky

Why so quick to assume you'll never ever get PR working?? unless you were just curious of other mods like PR.

Welcome to the PR world.
If you don't have any servers on your ingame list, most probably, you have to check your internet filters (under server list). First make sure that you don't have "ranked" box selected, also, boxes that must be selected are: same mod, same version only, punkbuster and all three map size boxes (16, 32, 64).
Other good mods? Hmmm
There are PR 0.4 and PR 0.322, they are awesome, but they are kinda old.
One more thing, before you start playing, I would recommend that you read PR User Guide here:
http://guide.realitymod.com/index.php?title=User_Guide
Feel free to ask any other questions here, or if you are VOIP user, if you see me on some server, join my squad and I will give you some quick basic playing instructions online.

Remove 'Ranked Servers' from the filter when searching.
EDIT: whoops, ninja'd.

that's cool, but like i said i just got the game last week so i am still figuring this out

and don't say i should just know. i just got cable so until now i've had dialup and haven't been able to play games online.

I didn't saw that anyone here asked something like: Should I use search option?
El Vikingo, if you don't know the answer to his question or maybe you just don't want to help him, just don't do nothing. As you can see in all posts above, there are plenty of us willing to help him.

I hate when people say search. Helping will end the topic and make people happy faster. Rather they should say: Check the guide!

Don't be a jackass. Instead of scaring new people away, how about helping them.
So many people are so incredibly anal on these forums.
Glad you worked it out, BrNe82. Hope to see you on the battlefield.

No worries m8te. If you find yourself on the same battlefield as me, just join in the squad. I'll try to help you as much as I can and see if you can't teach me a thing or two.

No need to bicker, ladies!
quick answers to someone who says they are new to online gaming (due to upgrade from dialup) is in order. remember all the silly little hurdles you had to clear when you first started

Glad you jumped onto PR straight away and didn't get influenced by the vanilla crowd
