Sony's Playstation 3 and the PSP can be linked up remotely, through a process called 'Remote Play'. This film takes you through the necessary steps to set up your PS3 and PSP for remote play.

Step 1: Register the PSP

You need to plug the PSP directly into the PS3 with a USB cable – the one you use to charge the JoyPad will work fine.
Put the PSP into USB mode by going to Settings-> USB Connection. Press X.
On the PS3, go to Settings -> Remote Play Settings, and select Register Device.
Check it's worked by going to Registered Device List, under remote Play Settings.

Step 2: Prep both systems

On the PS3:
Go to Network Settings -> Remote Play Settings
Enter an SSID, so you can recognise the connection.
Select WPA-PSK (AES), and a password.
Press X to save the settings

On the PSP:
Go to Settings, and select Network Settings. Press X on Infrastructure Mode, and you should see your PS3 ready and waiting for you. Select that, then Enter Manually -> add the SSID and select WPA-PSK(AES), and put in the same password as before.
Select Easy, then the Network Name. Save the Settings!

Step 3: Turn on Remote Play

On the PS3, go to Network-> Remote Play
On the PSP, go to Network-> Remote Play
Select Connect Via Private Network, and select the PS3.
There you go, you should now see the PS3 screen on the PSP. Magic.

    Make sure your psp is fully charged and plugged in and either download the update with link below to your pc or go to setting on the psp and do a network update. Make sure it stays plugged in and on or you will crash your psp and follow the prompts. Good Luck. http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/SystemUpdates/PSP
