For your PS3 connection you need WiFi or an ethernet cable that is connected to the internet. The HDMI cable only connects the PS3 to the HDTV and will not provide the internet connection.

How do you connect your laptop to your hdtv with your vga to HDMI cable?

HDMI cables are used as digital video and data links between video sources and televisions. HDMI is compatible with DVI interfaces so if the laptop has a DVI output, a DVI to HDMI cable can be used. If the laptop does not have HDMI or DVI, then there is no way to connect the VGA output to an HDMI input. There are several USB based video displays that can be purchased to connect to the laptop. The display can be used as a copy of the internal screen or it can extend the desktop across both screens. Select a display port that has either DVI or HDMI outputs.

Is there adapters for component cables to HDMI cables?

Analog component signals are completely different to digital HDMI. There is no simple adaptor cable because the analog signals require processing to convert to digital. There are converter units that will perform the processing as dedicated converters but it may also be possible to use other equipment such as DVD recorders. Many have analog inputs with an HDMI output and it is often possible to route a signal straight through the unit. Converting from HDMI to analog component is rather harder. In fact it is not possible to do it using authorized hardware. HDMI uses a copy protection system known as HDCP which encodes the signal. Converting that HDMI signal to analog removes the copy protection and no legitimate devices are available that will remove copy protection. There are some exceptions to the HDCP system, mostly for non commercial content but in these cases, there are normally easier ways to obtain analog copies. There are a handful of unauthorized converters but be warned that even if they operate now, they can be disabled if they are known to be unlicensed devices. I don't know about the truthfulness or accuracy of the above information , but a PS3 has an HDMI input and does have optional cables that have a component connection at the HDTV side and a HDMI connection on the other side. They ran about $30 and are designed to connect a PS3 to a HDTV with component cables and may work for your connection


How do i connect my projector to my PS3 and surround sound system each console only has one HDMI connection?

The PS3 is capable of outputting video from its HDMI port, while at the same time outputting audio from the PlayStation AV port. You would connect anyPS2/3 AV cable that had stereo RCA outputs (the pair of red and white plugs), but you would not connect the video plug(s) of that cable (S-video, RGB plugs, or a yellow plug). You would leave the video connectors unplugged because you are using HDMI for video. But a better option would be to connect a cable from the PS3's optical audio port for surround sound. If your surround receiver has a digital optical audio input, use that. It will allow you to hear 5.1 channels of surround audio. The red and white RCA plugs can only support 2.0 channels of audio (stereo).

How do you hook up Ethernet cable to ps3?

You do not connect the PS3 ethernet cable to the computer. Just as you connect an ethernet cable to your PS3 to allow it to go online your computer may also have a spot to connect the ethernet cable to allow it to go online. The way the completed system will be set up is that ethernet cables are connected to a router for both the computer and the PS3 and the router is connected to the modem to allow online access to both your computer and the PS3. If you do not have a router you will need to purchase one and until then if you have a computer with online access the computer could be connected directly to the modem which you can unplug and plug in the PS3 to the modem with an ethernet cable. Then you go to network setting on the PS3 and complete the internet connection. In order to use your computer again online you need to unplug the PS3 and Plug the computer back in.
