How to Upgrade a PSP WiFi Card

The Sony PSP includes a built-in Wi-Fi card, allowing you to connect your device to wireless Internet. If you want to upgrade this card, you can do so by updating the PSP's firmware. Doing so does not change the hardware of the card but the software, which can increase performance and even add new features, depending on exactly what type of firmware update Sony has chosen to release.

  Press "X" to download the PSP firmware upgrade. When the download is finished, press "X" again to install it. Once installed, this software will upgrade the functionality of all of the components in your PSP, including the Wi-Fi card.
