my psp on 3.80 works fine with my dg834gv3 using wpa-psk

untick the turn access control in wireless settings > Wireless Station Access List and see if that has any effect.

it is unticked.... should i update the router as i've never updated it since i got it (approx 8 months ago)

gaming_guy

in wireless settings make sure that the router has been set to broadcast wireless B & G (the psp only supports wireless b) signals and the Allow Broadcast of Name (SSID) box is ticked and click apply. try connecting the psp's again

it is on b&g i haven't allowed broadcast of name but put it in manually
do you think it will make a difference of me putting it in manually or letting it find it itself,

gaming_guy

are you putting the SSID in correctly (case sensitive letters etc)?

what firmware did you update to?

barjam_2

yeah exactly same i'm gonna have another go i'll allow broadcast and try again i'll let you know how i get on

the psp is capable of using all the symbols in my encryption

What symbols are these? How do you know that it is? You have updated the routers firmware but you haven't tried using a different key!

i'm not sure if this will work, but try running the connection test in network settings > highlight your router > press triangle > connection test

edit: i know this may sound stupid, but is the WIFI switch switched on (near the directional pad and make sure its slid up)?

barjam_2

yeah tried that also gaming guy cos when you save settings it then askes to test connection which i clicked but still no joy and yeah wifi is switched on cos if you try and do it without it being on it tells you its not on
