PS3 Internet Problem

[Stokes]

I'm on a unverisity network, where they requre LEAP authentication for wireless connections and so far I've had zero luck with getting it to work even with help desks ideas (they mentioned some people have had luck with the 360's, but thats about it).

I don't have a wireless router I can put in my room nor a hub or any sort. The only genius idea that Im pretty sure can't do anything for me is my computer has two network cards, and I can physically connect the PS3 to my computer which has internet, but I doubt this will help me for anything... any ideas? Anyone have a PS3 and know of a way for me to use its wireless?

Get a workgroup bridge that supports LEAP. It "bridges" wireless and ethernet.

Might be able to do it with DD-WRT and a cheap router, although I've never used it.

I don't know anything about the network support for the ps3, however using Windows XP you can plug your ps3 into your PC's second ethernet port then configure ICS to share the net. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/234815 is the MSFT KB article on the subject. Might be worth a shot for you.

This should work.
