How to Boost a WiFi Connection From a PSP

Like other hand-held, seventh-generation home gaming consoles, the Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) comes with a wireless adapter. This allows the PSP to connect to any WiFi (wireless) access points that just happen to be nearby. If you wish to increase the wireless range of your PSP, allowing it to contact access points that are further away and download faster, you can use simple household items, such as aluminum foil and tape.

Things You'll Need

  • 2 ft. long aluminum foil sheet
  • 6 in. long aluminum foil sheet
  • Scotch tape

Instructions

    • 1

      Fold the 2 ft. aluminum foil sheet in half. Do this three times lengthwise. The sheet should now be about 3 inches wide.

    • 2

      Fold the sheet in half width-wise. Do this only once.

    • 3

      Fold two corners of the sheet together. There should now be a cone at the top of the sheet, and the other side of the sheet should have two loose flaps.

    • 4

      Fold the two loose flaps in half diagonally, each pointing in a different direction away from the center sheet. This should make the sheet look like a "W."

    • 5

      Fold the corners of the flaps from step 4 in the same formation as you did in step 3. This will make all the points of the "W" cone-shaped.

    • 6

      Tape down the loose ends of the foil sheet with your Scotch tape.

    • 7

      Fold the 6-inch aluminum foil sheet three times length-wise. Then fold it once width-wise.

    • 8

      Tape this foil sheet to the bottom of your "W" shaped sheet. This should create a "W" shape with a handle sticking out of the bottom.

    • 9

      Tape the sheets to the back of your PSP. Turn your PSP on.

    • 10

      Select the "Settings" option in the main menu, then select the "Network Settings" option to ensure that your PSP antenna is working properly.
