Hey I recently got this Marconi Premium Combo router from Telkom and I have been trying to connect my PSP to it but no luck. It says 'timed-out' when trying to exchange key information. Can anyone give me some info on this since it's my first time.
 
I just setup my brothers psp using a Netgear DG834G Router. On the router go to Wireless Settings, enter a Name(ssid), choose WPA-PSK as the security method, enter a WPA-PSK key. If there is a option for wireless access list, you can enter your psp details there, just the MAC address should be fine.

On the PSP go to Network Settings >> Infrstructure Mode >> New Connection >> enter a name for the connection > Set WLAN Settings to "Scan" > it should pickup your ssid if the router is on, choose WPA-PSK (TKIP), enter the same WPA key that you entered on the router, leave the ip settings on Easy.
 
I have seen with these types of devices not to hide the SSID until everything is setup and workin ... afterwards hide the router's SSID
