Answer 1

The manual will tell you all anyway.

Here in my manual its showing diagrams.
I'll write down the directions.

Well since I can't draw out the diagrams. All it says is that if you are using a Router you just plug it in on any of the 5 slots. 4 of them being Lan 1, Lan 2, Lan 3, and Lan 4. The 5th is Wan. Which connects to the cable modem you use then that connects to the Internet Line. The Ethernet cable that comes with the Ps3 goes from the ps3 to the Lan 1 or 2 or 3, etc.

Once you buy the PS3 you can look in the diagram I am talking about.

First you take the cord and hook it into the network port on the back of the computer or wired router. Then on the computer goto network settings and choose set up new network. THe computer will be the master meaning it connects to the internet.

Then on the ps3 set up the wired connection under network settings. Once the systems have linked you are good to go.
