How to Hook Up Charter to PS3

The Sony PlayStation 3 shifts focus from a single-player console to a multi-player, multimedia gaming device. You can play games alone or with friends, watch movies from a media server set up on your computer or watch streaming movies through NetFlix as long as you're connected to a high-speed Internet connection. Charter Communications offers high-speed Internet in a variety of speeds ranging from 1 Mbps in their "Lite" version to 60 Mbps with their "Ultra60" version.
