you have to buy a wireless router from best buy or walmart or places like that and hook the wireless router up to your dsl or computer. Remember to turn on the 'WLAN' button before anything (it is the switch on the left bottom part of the psp). after you have that set up ,turn your psp on and go to ''Settings'' . when you get to the settings go to the last setting called ''Network Settings'', then click on it . once you have clicked on it there should be ''Ad Hoc Mode'' and ''Infrastructure Mode'', click on ''Infastructure Mode''. After that ,it wants you to create a connection name, just put whatever you want there. then it should say three things ''Scan'', ''Enter Manually'', and ''Automatic'' go to scan.after that it should say ''select the access point to be used'' , click on whatever is under where it says ''SSID'' . after you have clicked on whatever was under SSID it should say SSID again but under it , it should say the connection that you selected, just press the right direction button and go to the next thing. when you get there it should say ''WLAN Security settings'' , click on ''None''. the next menu should say ''Address settings'' click on ''Easy''.then it should say ''connection name''press the right directional button. Next where it says''Setting List'' press the right button again.then press the X button and save the settings. when it says Save complete press ''test connection'' below it. if it says optaining ip address after it says connecting to access point, then it worked. now go to the internet browser on the psp ,and wait for it to load . then you are on the internet ,enjoy!! P.S. the wireless router is the hot spot. I know these things because I bought a psp the first day they came out in my area.
