Using remote play (via an access point)

Connect the PS3™ system to an access point using an Ethernet cable and use the PSP™ system's wireless LAN feature to connect to the PS3™ system through the access point.

Example of a common configuration

Hints

A wireless router is a device that adds access point functionality to a router. An access point is a device that allows you to connect to a network wirelessly. A router is a device used when sharing one Internet connection among multiple devices.
A modem may be equipped with router functionality. Connect the PS3™ system to a device that is equipped with router functionality.
If the access point and modem both are equipped with router functionality, turn the router functionality off on one of these devices. The PS3™ system and PSP™ system must be connected within the same network. If two or more routers are used at the same time, the PS3™ system and PSP™ system may be connected to separate networks and you may not be able to use remote play.

Preparing for use (PS3™ system and PSP™ system)

To use remote play for the first time, you must register (pair) the PSP™ system with the PS3™ system. Register the system under (Settings) > (Remote Play Settings) > [Register Device].

Preparing for use (PSP™ system)

Create a network connection for connecting the PSP™ system to an access point. If the PSP™ system already has a saved network connection for use in connecting to a network via an access point, you do not have to create a new network connection. For details on creating a network connection, refer to the user's guide for the PSP™ system.

Using remote play

1.	Select (Remote Play) under (Network) in the PS3™ system's home menu. The system will enter remote play connection standby mode.
2.	Select (Remote Play) under (Network) in the PSP™ system's home menu.
3.	Select [Connect via Private Network].
4.	From the list of connections, select the connection for the access point to be used for remote play. If the connection is successful, the PS3™ system screen will be displayed on the PSP™ system.
