How to Setup a PS3 Wireless
The PlayStation 3 (PS3) can be connected to the PlayStation Network via your wireless Internet connection. The PlayStation Network is the Playstation's multiplayer matchmaking service, and also houses downloadable content for games and additional services such as Netflix. All versions of the PS3 include a built-in Wi-Fi adapter. As with any wireless device, the quality of the connection will depend on how far the PS3 is from your wireless router/hub.
