Forums - Sony - Is there any device allows PSP to connect to wired internet?

jman8 on 28 August 2008

I'm going to Europe for 3 1/2 months in a week and I want to set up Locationfree TV so that I can watch the NFL while abroad, but I won't have a wireless connection most of the time. Is there any way to connect the PSP to a wired connection? Could I find this device in a brick and mortar store? I don't really have time to get something shipped.



My Top 5:

Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger

My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 and Wii

Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.

No, and even if there was it would only be marginally cheaper than just buying the cheapest wireless router you can find and using that.

Yeah, I guess that would be smarter.... I just hate how unreliable wifi routers can be.

Unreliable how?

If you keep the PSP right beside the router while watching, you likely wouldn't have a problem.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Sometimes they just refuse to configure themselves to connect to the internet. Sometimes they'll be all connected and configured and then randomly stop working and you have to unplug and replug to get it working again. I've had a Linksys (which craps out daily in my home), a Netgear (solid reliability, not too much trouble at school), and a couple of Belkins (one works near perfectly [family member's house], one refused to connect [school]). They were all connected to different ISPs in different places, so it's really difficult to compare them directly, but they've all pretty much been decent at best.
