Dont know if there's a guide, because a lot of us dont like the idea of this happening, but you basically have to bridge the network connection to provide a real (ethernet) network connection to the PS3, it cant see ad-hoc networks.

The wifi "network" the droid provides is called "ad hoc" which isn't recognizable by PS3. You would have to tether it to your laptop and then make a new network and allow other computers/devices to share your computer's internet connection. Then run an ethernet cable (oversized phone looking one, sorry just in case lol) from your computer to your playstion. In other words your PS3 will have a wired connection and not wireless as it doesn't recognize ad hoc style broadcasts.


I wish you the best of luck and please let us know if VZ hits with charges for tethering to your PS3. Also feel free to state your data usage at the end of your billing cycle. Lol
