Ryan314 Posted December 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 Those are the options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted December 18, 2005 CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 Look around the wireless options and see if you can find anything about 802.11b and g. If you see it is in only g, then change it to mixed mode and restart your router if it doesnt do it automatically. Then try adding a new connection to your psp again.

Ryan314 Posted December 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 i found a thing that says filters and it says ip filters and mac filters.. ip filters is checked.. i cant find anything to do with 802.11b or g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan314 Posted December 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 oh theres a thing that says 802.11g mode only.. but it says disabled so that isnt the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted December 18, 2005 CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 Its prolly the mac filters. If you can disable the mac filters, if not then find out the mac address of your psp and add it to the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richcornucopia Posted December 18, 2005 CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 You could try enabling the mac filtering. For starters add your computers address and the psp. If this fixes it then add the macs of the other computers on the network if any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
