Hi guys. Wanna ask something regarding how to go online with my PS3. Please note that this questions come from a real newbie, and might sounds silly to old-timers here icon_question.gif

a) I have a Celcom USB broadband modem and i use it to go online with my laptop everyday. Can I just simply insert the broadband modem into the PS3 USB port and the PS3 will recognize it and go online with it?

Or,

b) When my laptop is online (via the Celcom USB broadband), can I connect the LAN port from my laptop to my PS3 LAN port using the LAN cable and go online with the PS3? You know, like piggybacking the laptop to go online with the PS3?

These two methods just came into my mind this morning and I really need your opinion. Or maybe it is just plain ridiculous and there are other ways to go online? If so, please show me the right way.

The purpose for me to go online is just to simply browsing the internet using the PS3, downloading demos, trailers and stuff and eventually play games online. And since I live in a rented house, and the tuan rumah is not planning to install phone line, USB broadband modem is the only gateway for me to go online.

b)yes you can share your 3g connection through your laptop's lan

recommended method would be get a router that supports 3g modem like aztech hw550 or tplink m3420

Thanks bro. I knew I can get something out of the LAN ports.

Regarding the "router that supports 3g modem", can you explain a lil' bit more?

Wow thanks bro. So this is how it looks like la. Going to google it for prices thumbup.gif

Another noobie question, this Aztech device transmits wifi signal and the PS3 picks it up, right? Can we put password for the wifi signal? I'm afraid somebody can suck my signal and leaving me swearing all the time.

Speaking of wifi signal, is it bulletproof against those evil devices that hack and steal others' password and wifi signal even though it is password-protected?

Hey guys,

Retail price for dualshock3 is about rm180..how come there are people selling for about rm150 in garage sales? Could they really get that low or are they just counterfeits?

Yeah I wanna know too. The other day, I asked a shop who sells PS3 stuff at my hometown why they're selling higher priced PS3 games and accessories, he answered that all those online stuff are made in China and not 100% ori. Wtf?

Very lame and stupid answer user posted image
