    Have a friend has it done, with a wireless router setup as an access point. Its messy to setup tho, you gotta setup router as a proxy server & allow internet connection sharing on the pc. To setup a router as an acces point, just dont use the wan port, plug in2 one of the other ports & disable dhcp. Make sure the pc is set to handle dhcp & the psp & ps3 set to dynamic ip.

    Sorry I cant be of more help, don't really know how to set it up, just vaguely know how he did it.
