EDIT: I KNOW I MESSED UP ON NAME.
alllo.
In this tutorial I am going to show you how to get your PC to share music/pictures wireless-ly. No more need to have a fancy IPOD connected wired. just use your PC!

Step 1 - Getting to know your current network!
Please note: This WILL NOT work for people without a router because Dell Remote access creates a server like interface off of a port on the router.
How many computers are on your network now? Basically, how many computers are accessing the Internet wirelessly?
What is your computers name? This will be used later, but identify the name of the computer that is connected directly (wired) to the internet.

Step 2 - Setting up Dell Remote Access.
On your computer that is connected directly connected to the internet, visit: http://www.dellremoteaccess.com/?action=download and download the software, set up an account. UltraVNC is part of the installation. That is used so if you want to access your desktop directly from any location you can! DO NOT CLOSE THE SETUP WIZARD!
- Next Verify your email.
- Then, go back to the wizard, hit next.
- Select the folder with your music in it.

Step 4 - PS3 Recognition
If your PS3 is already connected to the internet on your network, just refresh the network page in Vista, an Unknown Device By Sony Entertainment Inc should appear.Skip the following.
- Boot up your PS3.
- Go to Settings >> Internet Connection and setup your connection.
- After that, go on the network page on vista and make sure your game console appears. (if it doesnt, just make sure it appears in the web part of Dell Remote Access. https://my.dellremoteaccess.com/)

Step 5 - Getting the music onto the PS3
On your PS3, goto Music, if you don't see something similar to: FAMILY : Dan (Family's the computer name and Dan is my name on the PC), then try scanning for media servers. Once done, select your network and goto all music and there it is!

Nice tut.

But you know if your computer and PS3 are connected to the same router you can just put your songs into Windows Media Player and go to your PS3 search for a media server and you can play your music on your PC from your PS3 and films and anything it's really cool.

PS3 technology ftw. :D

Much less settings and things to mess with for less technical people.

Or just use Orb which is about 100x better if you want to access it anywhere.
