Sony Ericsson Aino™ Remote Play

[rasuk]

How far can I go with the Remote Play? I mean distance wise. If I travel overseas or just travel somewhere in general will I stil be able to connect to my PS3?

[whatsatroll]

@rasuk you can play anywhere with a wifi connection or 3g connection.

You will have to set up port forwarding on your router to the ps3 in order to connect over the internet though. Not hard. But an extra step.

@whatsatroll

Will it work if I just have a normal wifi service but no router?

[whatsatroll]

As long as you have internet access, you SHOULD be able to remote play.

If your ISP blocks the port that it uses, then you may have some problems. But they don't generally block random ports.

How can you have wifi service without a router? I am confused on this.

@rasuk If you can play online games on your PS3 then you're connected, all you do is enable the remote play settings and turn on automatic sign in, then leave it on standby (red light).

Wherever you are with your phone you'll be able to remotely turn on your PS3 and access content (PS3 games and DVD/Blu-ray movies not included).

[rasuk]

@G1NZOU oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooo, cool. So I can turn it off remotely too? Cause I don't wanna overheat my PS3 by not being able to turn it off. Thanks for the info man, you answered 99% of my questions!

[G1NZOU]

@rasuk Yeah, you can also turn it off too, forgot about that.

It took awhile for me to get all the settings sorted out but it should have step-by-step instructions on the PlayStation homepage.

Glad I could help.

man i thought the phone would be a remote to play the ps3 but you cant play games fuck!

[G1NZOU]

@iudfagajg You can't play PS3 games over remote play anyway, I use a PSP and I can play PS1 games but because of copyright reasons PS3 games and copy protected files won't work.

[mgsisbest13]

can i play my games with this feature? oh, and does this cost money from your phone? please reply

[JANTSUU]

No.

[ricefarmer912]

based on just looking at this: you only need wi-fi in your area to do this feature.....

In reality your PS3 can be sitting at home turned on while you're at a coffee shop using wi-fi to do this

The PSP (all of them) have this feature i believe but its mainly used with wi-fi (thats what you need to pay for)

on the Aino it said a 3G option was available, but you have to pay a monthly rate for the data plan and it is probably slower

[whatsatroll]

@mgsisbest13 you can NOT play games with this feature.

You have to have internet on your phone or you have to connect to an access point. if you connect to a router (Access point) then it will not cost you anything.

But if you use the wireless 3G function, it will cost you data time. Which can vary pending on your carrier. If you have unlimited internet on your phone, it won't cost you anything for this connection either.

[rasuk]

@whatsatroll And oh btw how does the PS3 work with 3G?

[whatsatroll]

PS3 doesn't. you have to have internet at your home and connect that to the PS3.

And then the phone will connect over 3G or WIFI.

[Tenaguer]

can you do this from distance with no wi fi?

[Tenaguer]
