How to setup Remote play on your PSP

  • Firstly on the PS3 go to the <Remote Play Settings> under the <settings> tab
  • Once in the <Remote Play Settings> choose register device
  • Once you click Register Device a message will come up on the screen telling you what to do with the PSP. Do not click OK just yet
  • Instead take your PSP and connect it to the PS3 via a USB cable
  • Once you are plugged in, under the <Settings> Tab, select <USB Connection> on your PSP. When you have entered USB connection go back to the PS3 and press OK
  • When you press OK on the PS3 it will register on both the PS3 and the PSP
  • The next step on both consoles is to go into <Remote Play> located under the <Network> Tab (on both consoles)
