.

1) admit off the dish above the side. above the phase of the PS3 (Left hand phase laid down), there ought be a small plate, admit this off (just requires a sheet of pulling above ought fulfill so).

2) shift the unhappy screw. Now you ought yell on a metal affair with a small metal flap above it, with a unhappy screw at it, admit out the unhappy screw, then draw above the metal flap.
  • This is the PS3's difficult drive, of which is capable with any forge of laptop/notebook
  • Do no pause above any forge of fabric although this can kill it completely)
    • You can flog this off although it is although a sheet less of a price, or you can format it. Formatting can be a hell of a work while you don't understand what ought do, therefore I'll tell you the simple manner of doing it. First admit apart your laptop/notebook, and emerge internal although a difficult drive that looks alike the PS3 one

3) admit the casing off, ought fulfill this emerge almost the PS3's casing until you find a sticker saying something across the lines of "If broken warranty is void". We want ought tear this off. internal you'll yell on a screw, undo this with a small star-head screwdriver. Once its out, you ought be capable ought glide the faceplate (the separate saying "PLAYSTATION 3" above it) off.

4) Now we can yell on a lot of holes and screws, admit total the screws out, and emerge almost the uphold and the front although some small tabs ought contribute in, this will admit the front of the casing off.

5) emerge at the hardware. Now we can yell on some hardware of the PS3, with the PS3 facing towards you laid down, above the left is the might furnish (back) and the WIFI Card (front), above the precise is the Blu-Ray drive, admit these total of by pulling the wires (looks alike tape) out of the sockets, and undoing any screws at the way.
  • This is another layer of the ps3 taken off, besides although now, let's concentrate above the WIFI Card, this virgin applies although laptops/notebooks. You can yell on the card itself and a string major ought a chip with a dim cylinder sticking out.

6) admit out the string from the chip. Once you've done this empty up your laptop/notebook (if you are willing) and find your WIFI card.
  • There ought be another slot although the antennae similar ought the one above the WIFI Card at the PS3.

7) progress ahead and slot at the antennae. Now find a manner of concealing the small element off the antennae at your computer, if no outside.
  • As I gorge a notebook I abbreviate the string of the antennae, poked it along some holes above the bottom of my computer, re-soldered it uphold on, then got some casing ought own it in. and impartial although added leisure although it I took out a USB from the PS3 charger (considering you'll no longer be needing it) and dissected it apart ought apply the USB itself, snip the wires and hot stick it on. You've now impartial made yourself a WIFI signal booster, congratulations
