You don't unless you have an internet connection. All the ads showing features for the PS3 state Online connectivity requires broadband internet service and network devices such as a DSL or cable modem. Most people who have this also require a router and an ethernet cable or a wireless router to allow connection of more than one device to there internet service. Once the PS3 is connected with an ethernet cable or you have a wireless router then you go to the PS3 main menu settings and then the Network setting then network connections.

The wireless that the PS3 uses is wireless G and you could connect the PS3 wirelessly to the PS3 if the router has also been connected to an internet service. All the ads showing features for the PS3 state Online connectivity requires broadband internet service and network devices such as a DSL or cable modem. Purchasing and connecting a wireless router is the step most people have to take if they already have an internet service. Once you were connected to the internet you would also have to have a game like Red Dead Redemption or LittleBigPlanet to play online. The online portion of the PlayStation network does not provide the games to play you must choose a game that has online play and then start to play it and choose online play. a Link to the Wikipedia site on PS3 games has been added and from there you can find detailed information on the individual games by clicking on the title of the game in the listing.
