    The PSP supports WPA-PSK TKIP and WPA-PSK AES (better) but not WPA2. YOur router must broadcast in 802.11b mode for the PSP to work though
    Find the LAN IP Address of the Router
    Hold Windows Key and press “R”
    cmd
    ipconfig /all
    Look under the network adapter you use to connect to your router and look at the Default Gateway IP address
    Then open your Web Browser and type
    http://{IP Address of Default Gateway}
    iehttp://192.168.1.1
    Then enter your username and password. For default passwords select your router from the listhttp://www.routerpasswords.com/
    Then go into Wireless settings and change the broadcast mode to Mixed Mode (802.11b/g) and try keeping WPA-PSK AES because it is more secure and about 3 times faster. WEP keys are annoying too.

    You can find your default IP address for your router by typing in ipconfig /all in the command prompt. Then inside your windows browser you type in the ip address that you find and wollla you can now change settings into your rounter.

    use the browser interface to change the settings of the wireless router. Usually it is http://192.168.0.1, but it could vary.
