    Have you got a wireless router? First you need to find the encryption key of the router you can find this on the router config.
    Make sure the wifi on the psp is on (the little switch on the left hand side).

    Then on the psp go to settings>network settings>infrastructure mode>New Connection>Scan>Select you router (where it says security that's the encryption you have)>press X(enter) and go thought the settings when you get to the wpa or wep key section thats where you need the key which you will find on your router config.

    (either one should work)

    default username: admin
    default password: password

    then click on wireless settings and the key should be at the bottom of the page (it may be printed on the bottom of the router itself)
