I did some studies and i guess with a wireles router ($40 .00) configured as a "bridge" you can hook up the PS3 20GB to the internet wireless!!. I will try this over the next couple days an let you know.

In theory that does sound possible andy, albeit with a little trial and error.

Be sure to let us now how it turns out!

I have a 20gb Playstation3 and I used 2 Linksys routers to connect wirelessly. Here is a link I used to do that. Working fine for me.

One thing that the instructions forgot to mention. The second router has to have a different IP address from your original router.

You can connect the 20 GB PS3 to a wireless router... Most wireless routers come with ethernet ports as well, so you should be fine. However, make sure not to set the router up as an accesspoint and make sure to get a router and not an accesspoint...

If you have the 20gig PS3 and you want to connect to the internet wirelessly I suggest the solution I used for my 360- http://cgi.ebay.com/LINKSYS-WGA11B-W...QQcmdZViewItem

Works like a charm but don't expect to use the PSP connectivity.
