Playstation 3 question?

Question

i just bought a ps3 and i see that you can use it to get on the internet is there anyway i can get internet without going through a phone or cable company...

Answer 1

Nop u need to sign up in a contract with a isp(Internet service provider) or if ur lucky sum1 close around ur neighborhood has his/her wifi router unsecured so u can scan for networks on ps3 and connect to them without a password.

Answer 2

No the only way I could think of is wireless Internet and I do not know if the PS3 can use wireless Internet. For example I used to get Internet for free on my old laptop because it was wireless but that was years ago , the signal was weak and I do not think that the PS3 is compatible this way.

If the person above me is correct then that might work. My wii is wireless but it cannot find a strong enough signal near by.

Answer 3

The playstation 3 connects to a Wi-Fi network meaning a wireless home network setup. A home network setup requires broadband internet like DSL or Cable internet and a router to your computer. Without broadband internet than the Sony Playstation would be useless for online game playing and downloading content.

Answer 4

You do need an internet connection...but, the ps3 is wireless meaning that it can pick up possibly your neighbors signal. Try it and see if it works out.

Answer 5

Yes. PS3s are magic and can connect to the internet from ANYWHERE, even 10 miles underground.

I really hope you don't procreate :P

Answer 6

no you need to sign up for internet service....sorry bud...you could try to steal someone else network since the ps3 is wireless i know that my psp pick up 3 servers near my house...my own, and 2 other neighbors......so i guess you could try it that way!

Answer 7

no
