Right so im out of my old hostel and into some new lodge, I have wireless internet set up in my room but I cant figure out how to get it working on my PS3. We are using a domain network or something, basically I connect to our service provider without a security password, but in order to get online you gotta go to the homepage and type in your username and password.

Right so the signal is weak in my room and I just got my PS3 to wirelessly connect with it, but on the test it just fails in the internet connection part instantly. Is it because the signal strength of 12% is just too low, or is it because it doesnt have access or something. How would i even go about entering my username and password on the PS3?

If you can set up a laptop to be continuously connected with the internet (logging in with username and password) and your laptop has an ethernet port, you can connect your PS3 with the laptop, which will then provide internet to your PS3.
It's pretty straightforward, you just have to configure your laptop to share internet with the ethernet port (just Google it and you'll figure it out) and then you can just connect your PS3 as usual (I think).

Sometimes connecting a game console to your laptop can be frustratingly difficult. I've done it a few times with my old laptop, but wasn't able to do so with my newer one. Hopefully you can get it to work!

It may depend on the OS you're using as well. Starter or Basic versions os Windows can't do this, but anything from Home Premium up can.

I have yet to see it, but theres a very good chance my answer will be no =)

Basically I want a good manhunt team, possibly a good Artifact Assault team as im beginning to like playing for the team win on that mode. Also my vids could do with some team work strategies like combining abilities to pull off moves you couldnt previously do.

My favourite for manhunt was to have one guy use templar vision from distance and lock on to the target, then I use disguise around the corner and poison him.
