Answer 2

all you need to do is go to the very right of the main ps3 screen (xmb) and it says sign up for playstation network and all you need is a email address and internet connection if your asking about how to get internet period that is in the settings menu and close to the bottom it says network and you can either have a wireless connection or can connect with a LAN cable (it will be faster if you use a LAN cable)

Answer 3

If you want to get on using Wired Connection (you have an ethernet cable connected either to your cable modem or connected to a router which is connected to your cable modem),

Just go into settings, all the way down to network stettings, click on set up internet connection, and then click wired. Follow the onscreen instructions by clicking, next, next, until you click finish. You should be fine then and your ps3 will be online.

If you want to get on using wireless, meaning you ahve a wireless router connected to your modem, then you can go a head and go into settings, network settings, set up internet connection, and click on "Wireless". Follow the onscreen instructions by clicking next. If you have a encryption on your router, you can go ahead and type in the password so your PS3 can connect to the router.

Click on finish to complete network set up and test the internet connection
