I have 1.5 and im trying to run the fired up browser.(yes i have the right emulater)

Every time I do the scan it says a connection error has occurred the WLAN switch is not turned on.

I went into my routers setting and did not really see anything.

I have a linksys wireless-G router.

I was following guides and this is where I got stuck thank you

The SSID is the name of the wireless connection your trying to connect to.

I have a linksys wireless G router as well,

SSID is set at the web address where your web access settings are stored (linksy).

You give your router (wireless network) a name and also configure encryption settings, etc.

The web address you need to go to, to setup the router is in the booklet. ( I trust you have encrypted your wireless access point
already?)

Once you have that setup, enter the settings in the PSP network settings.

http://192.168.1.1/

that is the general site for setting up linksys router WRT54G (which I have)

See what web address is in your manual for setting up the web based access settings.

Thanks, but I allready know that. I had to forward ports before.

I just dont know what to set up.

There has got to be a better guide, every where I go it just says about setting up the PSP.

I know there is atleast 10 other threads on this site about this but they just aint helping.

Maybe the WLAN switch on my PSP is broke.

My router even has that one button easy setup I even tryed that.

I just got GTA running on 1.5 that was simple.(how much harder can this be) WTF

Sort of, it only starts blinking when looking for an access point, or when its accessing the net.
