Hi, I finally got my 20gb upgraded to 250gb backward compatibility PS3. Can anyone tell how to connect online. Since my version is the bare bones version. Thanks

Download the latest firmware and install it first if you have not.

Then follow the steps at the beginning of this thread.

Err.. How? I can't go online. The 20gb model doesn't have wifi capability. I need to know what equipment to get to go online.

Yes they do. It was the first model to be released. It and the 60gb version have hardware backward compatibility for ps2 games.

Here a wiki Ps3

Congrats! You got one of those rare gem. A collector item, IMO.  tongue.gif
Because of lack of wifi, you have to connect via hard-wire (Ethernet cable) all the way to your router ethernet ports.

But, if your PS3 is too far away from your router/dsl modem, you can still do wifi but you need to get one of those
Wifi client bridge and just connect via the short Ethernet cable. For example:
Buffalo Wifi Gaming Access Point.  smile.gif

Thanks. I got it at quite a steal actually. It was a faulty set. So that guy sold it to me for RM 550. I fix the lens and the disc tray for another 350. All good to go. Ebay does wonders. Ok. I'll get a ethernet cable. Thanks

Finally can play MGS 4
