Ok, I know that there a few games coming out for psp that can go online, but how do I go online with it from my wireless wifi router at home??

I know! You have to lift your left hand and flick the switch on with one of your fingers. Sony and their archaic methods. :)

No that' s not what I was refering to. I know there is a local HOC mode that lets everyone in the same area log onto each others psp with the flick of a switch. What I' m refering to is the WIFI hotspot that has been talked about since day one. What I want to know is how do you make your home wirless wifi a HOTSPOT???

I guess if you have a wireless router that' s 802.11b (I think) you' re good to go.. I have such a router and I didn' t reconfigure it or anything. When I got home with the PSP after it was delivered to my job I tested it out by flicking da switch and using the Network update feature which is how it' ll connect to the internet and download firmware updates in the future. Anyways my PSP recognized the route right away and said there were no firmware updates at the moment. So I believe connecting for online play may work similarly .

It was some guy at the Gamefaqs PSP section he mentioned how he played against someone in Switzerland via tunneling.. I used to have a link to the site that allows for such a thing I' ll have to try and dig it up.
