Question
I AM TRYING TO CONNECT MY PS3 TO THE INTERNET,BUT IM GETTING AN ERROR MESSAGE:- WRONG WPA KEY,EVERYTHING ELSE IS OK. I HAVE TRIED BOTH WPA NO. AS IS, AND CONVERTED, WITH NO LUCK. CAN YOU HELP PLEASE.  

Answer
Gday Colin,

I would have a look at the official PS3 site at this link

http://playstation.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/977

You will have to check your wireless router settings to see what they are.  What the WEP key is set to if any, are your devices static or fixed, do you have a subnet or is the router handling it all?  (If you have a laptop or computer in the house check it's network settings on how it connects to the Internet and duplicate on you PS3)

Hope this helps
