Connect to the Internet with my Sony PSP?

Hey Dave. This question I am asking you goes to the one "connect to the internet with my sony psp". Each time I try to connect to the internet, there's something that says "A connection error has occured. The access point was not detected".Help me Dave.

Sorry to say that if you don't have any wireless Internet access points near you, there's really no way to proceed, Robert. You need to find an access point. Perhaps your local public library? Good luck!

How do I transfer music on my windows media player to my sony PSP correctly?

ive recently got 2.0 upgrade the browser worked fine for a couple days even 2 hrs ago now i try to connect and all i get is "a connection error has occurred. (80410D07)" any help would be great!

please help me find the instruction manual for my LG C1300 cellphone.thank you.

Tung, Google is your friend in this sort of situation. I searched for

LG C1300 user's guide

and the #2 hit is a downloadable PDF version of your phone's user's guide. Try it yourself!

i got my psp up to v2.0 but everytime i try to get on it just goes to a blank page how do i get a web page as my home page

hey dave. when i scaned.it said,an internal error has occurred(80410A0B)what dose that mean if u know or anybody knows hit me up at lilthug1092@aol.com please help me! it was working!

Yo set everything to automatic, go to your router setup, usually if u type your locas ip it will show you some confg page u can use. "check ur user maunal for the wireless router" oneu have figure it out u select WEB security and set it TO STATIC, once it gives u the key just use it in the WEP key and that should work just fine "in my psp for some reason is does not take the "g" wireless conf i used "B" so try that too.

this is great and i can get to the acces point but then it says
"a connection error has occurred
the attempt to obtain the IP address timed out"

i think its because i need a WEP key please tell me how to get that.

Please see the following to learn how to get your WEP key:

http://www.askdavetaylor.com/about_get_wep_key.html

What if your connection with no WEP key keeps timing out?

hey, i have a ?, Is it true that you can get full connection to the internet on your psp at any starbucks?

Charles, if your non-WEP connection times out, it means that you probably have some other encryption password needed (WPA?) or that perhaps you're using 802.11g, which the PSP doesn't support.

Jason, life would be nice if Starbucks offered free wifi, but it doesn't. It uses the T-Mobile system and you need a password to connect and you pay by the hour...

Hey how do I get an access point? I don't undersand what it's asking?Please Help Me out.

i get "a DNS connection error has occurred. (80410410)" any help would be great!

I haven't seen one solution to the 804 browser messages anywhere on forums.
One moment working fine, the next not and havn't been able to access since.
My view is that there's a malicious bug out there.
Tried restoring settings, online diagnostics - nothing works. Do not believe the postings that Sony replace these "defective" PSPs. They do not even seem aware of the problem.

i can connect to the access point but the attempt to obtain the ip address keeps running out. What do i do?

Hi,
I am thinking of getting a psp, i would like to connect to the internet, but i am not sure how You type the website address in. please can i have some HELP!!!

I am trying to connect my PSP to my buddies using AD HOC setting with Automatic detect and the two won't detect each other, what gives?

Hello Dave, I've recently been having some problems with getting the internet of my PSP. I understand the steps needed to get the internet up and running, but here's the problem. Sometimes when I connect to the internet on the PSP using someone else's connection it works fine and than sometimes if I want to connect to the same guy it doesn't what gives? I also get the "a coonection error as occurred" message and I set up everything as automatic when trying to hook up the PSP to the web. Why do I always get that message and of course I also try connecting to internet through my SMC wireless router (with all the settting set to automatic) which is also giving me hassles and the "signal strength" is like 90% to 100% strong. What gives with those problems.

Dave,

I'm trying to connect my PSP to my home wireless Access Point. My AP has a static IP address and when I try and set it up on the PSP it won't save it. i.e. when you enter the manual IP address you have to press the arrow back once the IP address is entered and you cannot proceed of the next screen unless you select "automatic" .. hope that makes sense!

Mike

when ever i try to test conniction it says check your security settings please help me.

Hi Dave,

I know you must be really busy with all these questions. I was hopoing you might be able to help me.

I can locate the SSID from my dongle which shows as 100%. I save the security settings, but it doesn't give me the option on my PSP to test the connection. When I attempt to conect, I get the error message 'The access point was not detected' even though I am sitting right next to the PC.

Hope you can help. Otherwise my PC and PSP is leaving throught the window!

Hi, I actually have a question. I recently got a psp and I am having a couple of problems. First, like everyone else, I can't seem to find any access points. Can I buy anything to help make chances better of recieving a signal? Also, I found a website that allows to me download games if I pay a membership fee. While I tried out the trial version to see if I could actually do it, it let me, but now I can't transfer the downloaded games and movies onto the actual psp. Any suggestions? Something about my version of the psp is not capable to maximizing the files is the tip I recieved from someone else. The last problem is actually me seeking an opinion. There is someone in a city near us that is known to hack into psps to put a bunch of games and movies in it. He charges $45 and we had a friend that did it, but I am terrified that he will mess up my psp. If anyone could lend me a hand here, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

Dave i have read your explaination for the wireless access, would you have a simliar one for wired? I have run the router set up from square one to install at the beginning both of my computers get to it(one wired one wireless) but the PS3 will not. No switch on PS3 20gb although it has the ethernet cable port. I have put together cat 5 with rj45 plugs and tested the cable, of course all good. Upon testing connnection for PS3 it times out, and there is a window on screen saying there is no ethernet cable connected. has to be something i have missed. Thank you very much it is very nice that you responed to so many people

How come you have so much signal strengh and i only have 20%? How do you get more signal strengh?

is possible to connect to the internet using laptop to the sony PSP?

do you pay for internet browser

Hi dave. I've been browsing these board while looking for my own solution to the psp's dns error with the number 80410418. I've entered everything correctly but there was one very little mistake that i did with a text error rather than entering an incorrect numbers for dns, gateway, ect. I think many people with 80410418 error also made. The problem was that while entering the dns, i made the mistake of entering an unwanted space before the number 1 in the ip which came out to be "192.168. 1.xxx" instead of "192.168.1.xxx". It's no difference if you're not paying attention.

As you can see there should not be a space infront of 1 inside the correct IP (or any spaces after or before any of the periods). Because of the psp display screen, a careless individual might missed that small space which would result in the dns 80410418 error.

I've read many of the post which stated that testing of connection resulted in 100% success, but when trying to connect to the internet they received the dns 80410418 error. This was also my situation and it was because of the little space before the number 1 inside of the ip.

If you've already found the solution, then never mind about this. Good day to you sir. Thank you for your work on the site.

I've been on the Internet on my PSP many times, but one day when I got off and went back on it keeps saying "A connection error has occurred. A connection to the access point could not be established. Check the security settings for the network and try again." I don't know why it started to do that. Please Help Me!!!

when the access point has done it comes up with can't find ip address why please help.

HOw do u get 2an ip point i jus dont get that

This really sucks because the connection didnt work 4 me and the access sooo it really stinks! who ever made this is really stupid!

I have a psp and ive done all the steps to get the internet although when i press 'test connection' it says

' A connection error has occured.
The attempt to obtain the IP address timed out.'

its sooo annoying!!!!!

I hope you can, email me quickly please!
Frankly I have a laptop, and a DS system that work without effort in the home off a 2wire, why will this thing not detect it?

Same problem as many others here, and seen elsewhere on the web.

Error 80410A0B when trying to scan or connect (even when I manually enter all the wireless settings I know work for our laptops). My network is configured to support 11B as well as G, but no dice.

I've read threads elsewhere that it has to do with the PSP's WLan power-save settings etc. Tried that, no success. Has *anybody* found a reliable workaround to the Error 80410A0B problem?

If so, please post it here (emailing danforth233 @ hotmail dot com would be nice too).

If there's no solution posted, why on earth haven't Sony documented it somewhere, seems common enough!

do u need to be near the computer's internet for your internet to work?

Thank You!! I was having a bit of trouble cause I entered my router passphrase under the Wep Key instead of the actual Encryption Key. Once I did that, I followed your steps and I got online!

hi dave, i have had my psp for quite some time, and in my school, it is not able to connect to the wireless network. the administrator said that it needed a certificate installed, and it wouldnt do that on my psp. then he also said that it wouldnt work because it needed peap authentication, is there a solution for this? thanks a lot, and i must commend you for the good work that you are doing.

hy, i have a q, is it posilbe to instal yahoo messenger on tha PSP? i know it is but wher is that place wher i have to insert that addresse or what it is? ( File/PSP/COMMON/PSPMSG/index.html ) pleas help me on this!!!

Please note that I have a lot of different PSP Internet troubleshooting articles on this site: go to the little search box just below the big red "Ask Dave a Question" button and type in "PSP Internet" to see what I mean.

As far as installing an IM client, Microsoft Office or even Windows on a PSP, I have never seen a legit, trustworthy demonstration of such capabilities and as far as I can tell, the PSP is most assuredly NOT a personal computer nor does it have the basic capabilities of a PC, so I can't imagine HOW you could install anything like that. And yet, people keep telling me they've seen WinXP running, so perhaps someone just needs to explain how this all works here so I can be enlightened? :-)

I have gone through all the steps but can't obtain an IPadress what do i do........!!!!

i have done wat u said but the internet still wont work please help im in a good area i get about 60 signal for it i got 10 once but it still dont work help!!!!

hey whats up, but i just got a bit of a problem please help Everytime i try to go on the internet it says this
a connection error has occured.

Hmmm... I think the PSP needs 802.11b enabled on the router you're trying to connect to. I couldn't connect at all when I had my Netgear DG834G set to 'g' only.

I get different problems though. Both the PS3 and PSP can be set up and connect no worries. Restart them and try half an hour later and you get 'access point not detected'. If you go to 'Scan' on either and keep retrying the router appears, then disappears, then appears... you get my drift.

Is it the router or the PS3/PSP? Mmmm... my sons computer connects to the same router wirelessly and doesn't have a problem. BTW the PS3 and PSP report signal strength between 90 and 100%.

Bizarre.

Hello.. I got the Network problem with my psp.. I Have Entered all the things that should be entered.. And I Have followed your guide above.. But when i test the connection it says: "A connection error has occured. The Key information exchange timed out".. And then i move closer to the connection point but it still says the same..

hey davi every time i get on the psp on the internet when i scaned it it keeps saying timed out connection error

wats with the thing that comes up sayin that the attempt to obtain an ip address has times out thing???

can you play computer games on the psp?

I was wondering..if I got a internet router like NETGEAR or something, would my PSP pick it up?

Terrance: that means you don't have a wifi network in range so you can't connect to the Internet.

Jesse: uh, yeah. :-)

Ahdll: You can definitely use that, but make sure it's "b" protocol (that is, 802.11b, not 802.11g, the more modern protocol) so that the PSP can see it.

every time hit scan on my sony psp it say it cant so please help me

I was having the 80110404 error. My PSP was finding the network, and it was connecting. I just couldn't get on the internet. Tried auto and manual config. Had my wireless router configured properly. I noticed my router had a 3rd DNS entry. So I manually entered that third entry into my PSP as the first DNS server, and left the second one blank. Voila! I am now online. So, poke around in your router settings and look for a 3rd DNS entry. Good luck!

Hi Dave,

I did all you said to get online on my psp. But its giving me the same error message - 80410418 and not able to connect.

Thanks.

Im so upset! I have no idea why its telling me this, is there anything i couldve done to make it say this????? PLEASE send an answer to Peace_hippie420@yahoo.com Thank you VERY MUCH!

Hey Dave you are great

ummm first all id have to say tht thx for this website but it never wrks can u send me the step by step instructions please

Hey Dave this question is for connecting your PSP to Internet. Ok so when I tested my connection and it works fine but some reason it says that that my Interent Connection failed i reached the last part of the process but it says that it failed so i try checking if it works on the interent but says DNS error or something like that could you give me a little help i cant seem to figure it out.

We just bought our son a PSP for Christmas. For once, this is not a "how do I get connected" question. I work with computers, have set a DSL wireless modem in our house, have the security key written down, etc., and have hooked up a couple of laptops already, so that's not the issue.

But when we got cellphones last year, we had an issue with my son downloading ringtones, songs etc. plus texting and not realizing how much he was running up the bill. To his credit, he didn't make a lot of unauthorized calls, but there were times he didn't realize he was making purchases.

We are concerned that we may get into the same situation with the PSP, and the credit card companies tend not to support the view that he was a minor and not able to enter into a contract to make a purchase. Plus they have our credit card number from when we made the purchase of the PSP.

So what is the deal (without me having to spend a lot of time learning how to set up the PSP) on making sure that he can't rack up a bunch of unwanted charges for online game playing, movie and music purchases, etc.

Secondarily we'd like to exert some control over what he can do and see online, just like with a regular PC. So there is both the purchase restriction issue and content filtering that we are concerned about being able to set up. I don't want to disable Internet access, nor do I think we'd be successful in keeping his PSP "dumbed down" anyway.

So we need a quick tutorial from an unbiased third party such as yourself.

Thanks.

Dave, can u tell me what to do if there is a WEP key?????? is still the same , or do i have to do other stuff?? pleast e-mail me. trivi0@live.ca

p.s Thx for the info about putting, music, photos and other stuff on PSP.

I can get on the internet browser and connect with my NETGEAR connection, but whenever I try to play online games, it just doesn't seem to find any games that I can join. Do you know why, and a way around the problem? Thanks.

hi dave

well my psp cant go on the internet it picks up the connection 100% but when i try to go on the internet it says "sorry connection is too weak" and the brodband is in my room do you know what is wrong with it or will i have to bring it back to the shop ??? p.s. and my friend has the same problem with his psp so it is not my internet :):):):)

thanks Ryan

Hey,

My PSP keeps on saying 'A connection error has occurred. The attempt to obtain the IP address timed out'. I typed in a WEP key but I don't know what's going wrong. Could I have typed in the wrong WEP key?

Mike

Okay a thousand ppl must have asked the same question but no answer has appeared. I have a wireless router for my laptop and its unsecured, yet my psp still won't connect. that same connection error keeps popping up can youhelp please

Sammy and all, the first thing I would check is that your wireless router is NOT a "g" only router. There are now three popular versions of the 802.11 protocol, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n. Only the first can be seen and used by the Sony PSP. The others are incompatible. Unfortunately most of the wireless routers I see at the computer stores are now "g" only, so buyer beware.

hi, followed instructions to get psp online,have got netgear router, made connection once, now every time i connect it says dns error!! driving me mad , have reset to default settings but has made no difference, any advice would be gratefully received, thanks!!

Hello, I am trying to connect the PS3 to my home wireless, it keeps giving me - Failed to Obtain IP address.

I have enabled DMZ ip on my router page, I have also manually enabled Port Triggering Undee Gaming on my router, below is what I have given.

ports I inputted on my Wireless router are - 80, 443, 10070-1008- & 3479

Whether it is secured or unsecured, it just wont connect.
Does anyone know if there are specific Ports that need to be allowed for PS3 to connect to Internet?

thanks for the help

question:I cant connect to my internet because my internet security is too high. Can i go to internet in a other way??

i cant get on a web site becauae it saids "communication with the server failed
a DNS error has occured. (8041040f)
what do i do?????
help me ASAS

WHY THE THING SAY THE DNS FAILED AND SAID (80140418)

I did everything you showed on the help page, I had alread figured it all out on my own, but tried it your way, and both ways don't work - It sees the internet, it just refuses to use it here's the message: A connection error has occured, A connection to the acess point couldn't be established, check the security settings for the network and try again.
I'm out of creativity when it comes to manipulating it to work for me, can you help?

P.S. It DOES see that there's internet there, it says its "65%" signal strength, it just won't connect, I've put inthe WEP adress and everything, it just hates me, or wants me to spontaneously combust...

hi, same problem as every1 else, i cant conncet 2 inter net on my psp, coz it says check ur security settings when i havent set any, ad my parents havent touched it at all. it says conncetion cant b established all the time. help!!!

Please note that a common problem with Internet connection errors is simply that you are using an 802.11g router / base unit, and your Sony PSP simply doesn't know 'g' protocol, just 'b'.

My psp says that they cant find the IP adress so a do custom, type my IP adress in and then it says it still does not work. Tell me why!

i still cant get on, plus how do i download stuff onto my psp

id like to see how strong the acees point is, but unfortauntly its unsupported, any way around it??? Plus can i hack into the school computer or some thing on my psp. Im in christchurch, New zealand, but i wont say which skool incase you guys get any wrong ideas.

when i test the connection it says "a connection error has occurred the access point was detected."
connection name archangel
ssid archangel
what does dat mean an how do i fix it

dave can u help me it says an internal error has occurred (00000001) what should i do

Ok so i use to have a PSP (regular one) and had no problems connecting to the internet with it. But a few days ago i sold it and got a slim. I love it but whenever i try to test my connection or go online, it just switches back and forth between "connecting to the access point" and "exchanging key information". It's really bugging me. Help please!

I tryed this and it came up linksys 15% when i scanned it. and then i tried it again and it said internal error occred

hope you can unerstand sorry for my bad english.

Hi i'm only 13 but i'm fully aware of most things in the technology category I was having trouble with accesing the internet over the PSP as my security was configured to WPA which for some reason wouldnt work on the PSP (although it seemed to work fine on PS3 and the Wii) well anyway the best advice I can give you is to re-configure your security settings to a 64 bit WEP as you get a much better signal and most importantly it worked.

hi please can u help me i am having problem with the psp..when i go through all the steps, it brings me to the end and says an error has occured..attempt to obtain the IP address has timed out. how do i get the ip address? please help me and reply to me.

Tank-you
-Nick- =-]

For those of you, like Nick, who have inexplicable problems connecting your PSP to your wireless network, look closely at your wireless base unit: the PSP *CANNOT* understand 802.11g or 802.11n. It *ONLY* understands 802.11b at this point in time, so no matter how strong the signal, the PSP will see it, but won't be able to negotiate the protocol handshake and actually connect to the Internet. If that's your problem, the only solution is an older 802.11b compatible router/wireless unit.

dave if your out there ineed help
i tryed ur instructions with new conecction so i go scan it starts with scan or enter maually on my psp and i go scan but i have 1 which has 100% signal strength but i made a wep key by acciedent and cant get in even kno the wep key says it is right but wen i connect it says can not connect key information timed out

Hey, I think it's great what your doing.

hey dave.I have done all the things you said to do then when i get on the internet and put in goole.com it comes up "A DNS error has occurred."
(80410410) what do i do ?

Really? I don't have a problem with my Netgear WNDR3300. I can connect to the PS3 through the Private Network at home, and I can connect to the internet, and to the PS3 over the internet, through my router. However, I cannot connect to my PS3 over anyone elses internet. Chik-fil-A has free Wi-Fi, and the PSP can recognize the connection, but I cannot to my PS3. I gave my brother my old router, and I can connect to the internet at his house, but I cannot connect to my PS3. I keep getting the same error messages everyone else is getting, and I cannot find a resolution on this.

Any help? I don't agree with the connection problems you describe, because I can recognize G & N wireless networks.

this makes no sense 2 me! i cant figure it out! plz help!!!

Please help me with the DNS error on my PSP thanks Dave the brave

To add on to, what looks like a pointless outing to figure out what's wrong with my connecting, I'd also like to add....

In another thread on Sony's forums, someone suggested that if you connect away from home, and make it to the "error" message screen, that it means the PS3 has turned on.....you only then have to go back out and select "Private Network" to access it. However, I've tried this, while leaving the PS3 off, and then by turning on the PS3, and trying it that way.

It was a no-go on both occassions. I could connect at my brother-in-laws house to the internet, but I couldn't access my PS3 at all.

The best news.....everywhere I try to go to get answers, all started with 2007 inquiries, and NO ONE has yet to answer them.

by me it always says the attempt to obtain the IP
adress timed out

when i test my connection it says the access point has timed out. what do i do?

Hi Dave I follow everything you say but when I trying to connect it said " A CONNECTION ERROR HAS OCCURRED THE WLAN SWITCH IS NOT TURNED ON" what should I do

I am not very good on computers & my son(10 yrs old) has just got a PSP & wants to use the internet. We have a router here from when my stepdaughter had a laptop. When set up the password was random numbers of which no record was kept. When I scan our wireless network comes up but security is "Not Supported" it won't even let me select it & put in a password (ie: if i can get a new password). Can you please advise how I can change the secy setting.

Hey umm I go into network settings, infrastructure mode, new connection, scan and when I do that it will not show any wireless connections that I can connect to. Is there a way that I can get a connection without a WiFi?
I hope ya can help me.

To CHERIE - Look on the bottom of your router and there should be instructions or maybe a website and password. Use those.

To Dylan - You can't go to YouTube "officially". Adobe AKA flash player is not available on PSP. BUT with custom firmware, you can install a program that lets you. If you don't know what that is look it up.

CAN YOU SHOW A VIDEO HOW YOU DID IT PLEASE...it keeps telling me that a communtion error dns (80414010)i nedd help please and thank you dave taylor

Dave, I've recently been having some problems with getting the internet of my PSP. I understand the steps needed to get the internet up and running, but here's the problem. Sometimes when I connect to the internet on the PSP using someone else's connection it works fine and than sometimes if I want to connect to the same guy it doesn't what gives? I also get the "a coonection error as occurred" message and I set up everything as automatic when trying to hook up the PSP to the web. Why do I always get that message and of course I also try connecting to internet through my SMC wireless router (with all the settting set to automatic) which is also giving me hassles and the "signal strength" is like 90% to 100% strong. What gives with those problem

hey dave. ive got this netgear wireless router WG111v3. i try continuously to connect to it from my psp system version 4.05 . it keeps on saying
"a conncetion error has occured.
an access point was detected"
i hav 64%+ signal strength. pleeeeeeeeaaassse help me. also, can you get a wired connection.

I have connected my PS3 to my wireless network with no problems. I would now like to do the same for my PSP, then link them together. With the PSP, everything works out fine, it finds the network and everything goes ok until the test. This is when I get the error message 'A connection error occurred. Followed by either - The Key information exchange timed out or The connection to the access point timed out.' Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Brian.

Hey Dave. This question I am asking you goes to the one "connect to the internet with my sony psp". Each time I try to connect to the internet, there's something that says "A connection error has occured. The access point was not detected".Help me please I am 11 years old

Generally "access point not detected" means that there's no wireless (wifi, 802.11) network within range of the PSP. Unfortunately we don't live in a world with pervasive Internet connectivity so you might have to try using your PSP at a cafe or the public library or somewhere else where there's wireless Internet. Good luck!

In terms of the WLAN switch, please see:

your message board was very helpful but my psp keeps saying connection timed out. it goes through the connection recognizes the wifi but it doesnt connect. it states "a connection error has occurred the attempt to obtain the ip address timed out" is their somethin i missed? please help me.

I've been trying for 3 weeks to connect my PSP to the internet. I've tried everything I've looked up and everything I have been told by tech support...I only got it to connect one time for about 10 seconds. Could it just be my PSP? I did win it out of an arcade game on $1.00 (throughout the weeks of playing the damn game I've probably spent about $50 which is still a great deal). Any advice would help, but any new advice would be fantastic. Thanks!

Hi dave, while trying to connect to my SMC wireless router, i haev the ip address and i think the WPA-PSK(TKIP) password is correct and it says "A connection error has occured,Exchanging key information time out"
What could be going wrong? And how can i access my TKIP Password to double check that it is right??

My PSP was accessing the internet fine....until I turned on my wireless security. Now I can't get the PSP on the internet with my wireless network. It recognizes the wireless signal at 100%...I enter my pass word and get the error message:
a connection error has occurred the attempt to obtain the ip address timed out" . How do I fix it without undoing my wireless security?

Does the 'none' security only work w/ wep security servers. (But then again, the wpa-psk(tkip) server im trying to get w/ no security is the one i keep getting the 80411082 error message w/)

Right now my software is at 5.03 an i cant download the newest software cuz i keep getting kicked off the server and my DLoad fails.

This is a relatively new problem, and i have been using that server fine for months, but this started in around march.

This is SO ANNOYING! I have tried continually to connect my son's new PSP at our home, in 3 different airports with open wifi AND at my brother's house to no avail! I get the exact same message EVERY time " A connection error has occured. The connection to the access point timed out." I don't get it. It is obviously not the wifi because it happens everywhere. I am about ready to return it; if it doesn't do what it claims to. Can anybody help?

testing internet connection please wait, after that,
signal strength:62%

security none
ip address:192.168.?.??
proxy server do not use
internet connection failed

first thing you cannot connect to the internet without a router or a wifi sorry thats bad news good news is. u can get ur errors gone it should be your router security setting want you to go to www.whatismyip.com copy and past your ip on the top of the search bar as you get there login to ur router and then go to where ever ur router security maybe and then you should see alot of security on want you to desb them witch i mean to turn them all off and save your router settings. NOTE: the security setting is to keep people from connecting to your internet. but how ever it is a simple task i am telling you so save your router settings try to reconnect to ur internet on the psp once again if that dosent work add me on msn akaweed@live.com goodluck!

I did forget to menstion that the psp slim is diffrent to the basic rookies one so that maybe a problem to some of you that have a diffrent then basic like explained on the top he or she is only doing the connection for a basic not a slim it is what i got told at GAME STOP.

I'm not sure if anyone has had this problem but I have a comcast router you the basics and what not. When I try to connect my psp it says (under security) NOT SUPPORTED and it grays out the whole thing so I can't use it. Is this fixable?
(email me Geekadaccio@aol.com)

well dave i just got my psp for christmas and im having trouble hooking it up to the internet. I hit scan and then it shows my connection then i click it and it asks for a WPA key is this my router security key?

1. Error connecting, despite finding network on scan. My problem was wireless access point was set to G only. Resolved when re-allowed wireless B and G.
2. WPA2 security is not supported; WPA is.
Eric: yes, it's your router's wireless network security key, aka shared key. Any wireless device will need this key to connect, including for example a new notebook computer. Find the key by accessing your router's setup page using a web browser.

Every time I try using the internet browser something comes up that says "A connection error has occured. The attemp to obtain the IP address has timed out." What should i do from here?

what if you get that error message and you are on 100% signal strength
it just says that my sicurity sttings are blocking it or something like that (well exactly what it says in the error message you posted)
my mate a PC expert says that i need to "open up my network" but i have no idea how to do that (i am using windows vista pemuim 64-bite and a Zylex router)
??HELP??

Dave, dude. i just got my psp yesterday, i conected to a thing called netgear. i was on the internet before. i was trying to update the internet thing. now it sais the ip address is wrong, i did your test and it said the other connections signal was too weak. so i restarted n deleted every thing off my memory stick and i formatted it and started the psp over, when i went over to browse the internet, it did the same as before. it wont work. and the psp is brand new

i have done what you have told me to do but it still does not stop the DNS error. I was wondering is there something else that i can do to get my PSP to work

when i go to the internet and put scan on my psp it says internal error and some numbers wat should i do
