No Wireless internet connection PS3

Most of the time this issue can be resolved itself and has to do with the WEP code from the router to the unit. If a user goes to the systems webpage, and goes to 'wireless settings,' and creates their own WEP code, than it should work when the WEP code is placed into the PlayStation 3.

Here is a step by step way to ensure you are hooking up to the router correctly wirelessly.

1.Verify that your wireless connection is active and showing full strength. Make sure your PS3s Ethernet cable is not plugged into the system.
2. Turn on your PS3 and choose, 'Network Settings' from the 'Settings' option located in the main menu.
3. Go to 'Internet Connection Settings' tab and select 'Yes,' when the systems shows a new screen stating that you'll be disconnected from the internet.
4. Choose 'Easy' on the next screen that asks what kind of internet connection you are going to use.
5. Select 'Wireless,' when it asks the type of connection you have.
6. Go to 'Scan' on the next screen. The system will search for all available internet connections in that area.
7. Select your home connection when the available internet screen pops up. Go to your security settings and enter the encryption key. Make sure you save your settings.
8. Select the 'Test Connection' option to test your connection and if it has been made all of your network information will appear on the screen.

If you cannot connect to wireless internet and are still experiencing no wireless internet for PS3, then it is time to go to a professional repair center. Most online tutorials or blogs will recommend heating the internal parts for different amounts of times. There are actually cycles for heating for different parts of the inside, and the amount of time for the cycle is one of the key differences between a professional and longer lasting repair, versus an amateur repair or a 'quick fix.' Some of the online tutorials will help you fix your PlayStation 3 temporarily but can lead to more future problems, a lot of times more severe than the previous problem. It is also possible that the amateur repair can cause long term damage to your motherboard.
