    How to Connect PS3 to the internet via wireless Internet connection

    Connect your PS3 to the internet via a wireless Internet connection.

    Follow if you have a wireless broadband connection to these instructions with your PS3 to go online.

    Before you begin, make sure that:

    • you know what your SSID (this is essentially the name of your internet connection)
    • your router is set so that the SSID broadcast, so you can find PS3
    • you know what your WEP or WPA security key (if your broadband connection is enabled (recommended))


    Do not know what your SSID or your security key? Ask the person who configured your Internet connection or contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).



    1. Go from the Start Menu of your PS3 to Settings> [Network Settings]> [Internet Connection] and select [Enable].

    2. Scroll down to [Internet Settings] and press the X button. It will ask if you want to continue. Select [Yes].
    3. Select [Easy] if a [Setting Method] is gevraagd.Vervolgens is asked about the connection method. Select [Wireless].
    4. In the next window, select [Scan]. You will see a list of wireless connections in your environment. Select your SSID and press the X button.
    5. Press the right direction key to continue. Do not press the X button, then ga change your SSID.
    6. Select the type of security key that is used by your Internet connection. Select [No] if you connect no security key and then press the X button. You will now see a snapshot of your connection information. Press the X button to save the connection and testing.
    7. Select [WEP] or [WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK] as there is a security key is enabled. Press the X button to a keyboard on the screen and enter the key. Pay attention to capitalization. Press the START button to close the keyboard and then press the right direction key to continue.
    8. Press the X button to the settings and the connection test.
    9. Select [Test Connection], and wait. If the test is successful, have your PS3 connected to the Internet.


    Note: If the test fails, you may have the MAC address of the PS3 system. See the manual for information on eu.playstation.com identify the MAC address.

    Using remote play via the Internet

    You may not be able to use remote play via the Internet depending on the network device in use. If this happens, check the following information.
    • Use in (Network Settings) under (Settings) to check that the PSP system can connect to the Internet and PlayStation Network.
    • If the router in use supports UPnP, enable the router's UPnP function.
    • If the router in use does not support UPnP, you must set the router's port forwarding to allow communication to the PS3™ system from the Internet. The port number that is used by remote play is TCP: 9293. For information about setting this option, refer to the instructions supplied with the router.
    • Port forwarding is a function for forwarding signals that arrive at a specific port (entrance) to another specified port (exit). This is also referred to as "port mapping" or "address conversion."
    • If the PS3 system is connected to the Internet via two or more routers, communication may not work correctly.
