How-to: Using shortcuts for easier PS3, PSP browsing |
Listed in: How-To Tags: psp tips and tricks, Router, Sony

Sometimes, browsing the Internet using a PSP or a PS3 can be a good alternative to doing it on a desktop PC or a laptop. The only huge drawback to this is the text input system on both devices. Of course, you can use a keyboard with either system, but what if you don't have one?That's where shortcuts come in. These can make browsing via the PS3 and PSP a more hassle-free endeavor. To help people get acquainted with how to go about using shortcuts, the Sony Protection Group has come up with an easy tutorial on how to do just that. Here are the steps:
- Visit OpenDNS and click Get Started.
- Choose the router option and your router model.
- Log in to your router. Often, the preferences are set in your web browser, via a URL with numbers (example: http://192.168.0.1). You may need a password.
- Find the DNS server settings.
- Scan for the letters DNS next to a field which allows two sets of numbers, each broken into four groups of one to three numbers.
- Put in the OpenDNS server addresses as your DNS server settings and save/apply.
- Please write down your current settings before you entering the OpenDNS addresses, just in case.
- Restart your computer and router. Visit: welcome.opendns.com to verify all is well.
- Create an OpenDNS account as this will give you the ability to create shortcuts. Once logged in click the Networks section and add your current IP address. Now start creating your shortcuts! Type these shortcuts into any browser on your LAN like your PS3 or PSP and you are there.

Really not worth even bothering with them. Bookmarks or even a simple html doc containing your links will do.

I'm glad to see though that I'm not the only one that thought it might be useful as I have now searched ps3news.com and found the entry you are speaking of.

You can set the dns on the router settings you are using with the PSP!
