How can I block Internet access on a Sony PSP?

you can reset a parentel control password by reseting all settings to default. Also playing with the parental controls will only limit oficial sony content not pages viewed on the internet. It would be best just to cut off your sons acess to the wifi.

you can change the password by doing the same thing only this time a prompt for your password will pop up ( i figured this out by toying around with it).

I bought my psp used. I can't get into my security settings to unlock the internet browser. Is there anyway to format my psp so i can have my own password instead of somebody else's

If he is going on porn or other bad websites take it away.Thats what i did.

There is a way to reset the password that people put in to the psp so the safest way is to just block the wi-fi

Unless your kid is like 10, I think you have some real issues.. Its just the internet, big deal, block bad sites if you must. but why cant he use it at all? thats just stupid.

Is there a way to only block certain rated cites, not the entire internet?

well i have a psp my uncle had it first and he didnt tell me the password and some how when i deleted everything i blocked the internet how can i unblock it is there a place i can go?

You can format your psp's firmware altogether, but i don't reccomend that because reading when all these comments were posted, you guys probably aren't tech literate or you would know how to format the firmware by now... :/

what Booshibonton said "I bought my psp used. I can't get into my security settings to unlock the internet browser. Is there anyway to format my psp so i can have my own password instead of somebody else's"
yes u can by goin to your psp's setting go to system setting hit x on the 9th option it will say do you want to restore the default setting say yes x2 and there isnt going to b a password to access the internet and set up yourown password

if you are too dumb to do that by yourself maybe you should reconsider your decision in the first place...

Of course there's the option of just locking him out entirely and physically controlling it, but there are some clever ways to get exactly the effect you want. I think there is a way to filter certain sites, but I would think it would be limited to whatever URL blocking firewalls are set up on the AP you're trying to use the internet with... if it's your personal router, it's kind of a lengthy process. For mine, it's an option called Client IP filtering, and it allows you to block any suspicious URLs viewable by a router-specified PC (in this case it will be the PSP). First, you'll need to set up MAC address filtering on your router to include the MAC address of the PSP. Bind a totally seperate IP address from the IP pool to that specific MAC address. Now when you initially set up the internet connection on the device that your kid's gonna use, this seperate IP will be solely for his PSP surfing. Now you can go to "Client IP filtering" and set the rules you want. This way you can control everything right down to the types of protocols he can use--even define schedules so he can't use it while you're at work! Still, this won't stop him from taking it to a hotspot and accessing what he wants from there... from there, you're on your own.

is there any ways that i can reset the password that other people set in psp?? or i still need the password to create a new pass??

if you really want him off/locked out you can go inside the browser's proxy settings and set up a bogus proxy server, just go to Internet Browser>[press triangle for menu]Tools>Settings>Proxy Server Settings>[select "use" or "use proxy settings for each connection"] type in a bogus IP address [example 123.456.678.890] enter a bogus port number [e.g. 1010] and falsify the authentication settings as well [username:not_till_i_say_so_son,_lolz! Pass:********]>ok>Protect Settings With System Password(enter set password)>ok>>>>>> every time he'll try to connect he'll get a DNS error(bogus connection can't connect to websites) and threrefore no matter WHERE he tries to connect it'l give him the same message(Note: this will also disable all other internet related apps on the psp too) so next time he asks to use it just reverse the settings, give him a time limit, take it up at said time, check the history(triangle>History) and repeat above process to lock it back down

Hope This Helps >:D and if it fails, just take the router withya to work xD

I just played around with my 14 yr old son's psp and found that the default pass is 0000 and yes I can change it to whatever I'd like and he wont be able to access the web if I so choose. Then I found out by trying it that he can just reset default settings and be back in business (yes it removed my parental pass) so what I suggest is not giving them the password to the wireless network. You can look on the psp to see what other networks are secured and unsecured around you and if it's getting a strong signal from the unsecured networks all you really can do is take it from them cuz anything else like bogus proxy's and pass's they can just reset to default.

well there is a solution to blocking certian content from which your child can view. It is simple and fast and can be done on the psp. all you have to do is hock up onto the internet once you have done so press triangle on the psp and go over to bookmarks press X then u will see 3 options apear one wich includes trend micro. select that and u will be taken to thier website. they will offer u 2 services, internet security and content blocker go ahead and click on that and install the 30 day trial.......

...do not worry its really free cause it dosent track ur days! any ways there you have a content blocker that works. now when they try and go onto a porn site it will display a message telling them they can't accses that page. i hoped this helped very much. thanks. :)

It`s easy to get rid of the code all you have to do is go to settings then system settings then press "x" on Restore Defualt setting`s.
