Im assuming some type of WiFi adapter, and I need one to work for the PSP and Wii... so what device should I be looking for? Yeah a WiFi adapter is the cheapest way to do it. Play-Asia (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-19-49-en-15-wifi.html) has a few different brands in right now. The Mayflash's WiFi Link (http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-344i-71-b8-49-en-15-wifi-84-j-70-1g1l.html) is the cheapest at 28.90. Just make sure to check that it can be used with all they systems you want to use it for.

It is a bit pricy, but they are cheaper than routers, even the low end ones run 60-70$. No, at the moment there is no way to hardwire a PSP into a network.

Eh, then my whole house has to go wireless. I figure sicne my family pays for the cable internet, no use in losing speed.

Your whole house doesn't have to go wireless, most wireless routers will have at least 4 wired ports in addition to the wireless. That is what I use at my house. I have two wired computers, a wired PS2, a wireless computer, and my DS and PSP when I use them. If you can find one for cheap then go for it.

Get yourself a nice wireless router with wired ports on the back and you'll be all set. Note that unless you have some bizarre super connection, even the slowest of wireless signals will transmit faster than your internet connection can feed it. Most cable connections run between 4 and 7 Megabits per second. 802.11b, the slower of the 2 common connections, runs at 11 Megabits per second. 802.11g runs at 54 Megabits per second.

I've got this ultra-common one and love it: http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-WRT54G-Wireless-G-Router/dp/B00007KDVI/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-1443012-7736136?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1183225083&sr=8-1

unless youre getting above 54mbs youre not going to lose speed. also most wireless routers are wired/wireless.
