Anticipating the flood of questions, SG57 provided this step by step process for a WiFi NetHost Setup:

1. Download IrShell v1.6
2. Download the Network Host File System Server for Windows.
3. Extract and Install IrShell onto your v1.0/v1.5 PSP
4. Extract the Network Host File System Server file to anywhere on your pc that you want to view, my suggestions is the root, this allows complete access.
5. Launch IrShell
6. Press R+Start and start the Configurator
7. Scroll down to NetHost IP Address option.
8. Click 'X'
9. Now, leave it there for a second while you obtain your IP Address on the local machine.
10. To do this, start the Command Prompt.

Way 1: Start->Run->'cmd'
Way 2: Start->All programs->Accessories->Command Prompt
Way 3: Go into any text editing software, and type in:

"command.com" without the quotes and save it as a .bat file.

11. Now, you may need Admin privleges so, react appropriatley
12. Type in the command prompt: "ipconfig" without the quotes
13. Where it says: IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.PORT#here. PORT#he re (Remember that number or just keep it open)
14. Go to your configurator on your PSP again
15. You should be editing the defualt Ip address provided
16. Replace it with what you get on that line in the command prompt... in my case, I had recieved: IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.101
17. Now press Start
18. Now go down 1 option and youll see the XMB Network Config Entry for Nethost: with a defualt of 1...
19. Set this to whatever number'd connection your using... Meaning if the connection you want to use is ,in the XMB, 3rd on the list, set this number to 3.
20. Press start.
21. Enable or Disable the Redirection of APP view to host for ms0:/ mounting (for launching folder specific homebrew)
22. Press 'O' to save settings
23. Now go to where you had extracted the Network Host File System Server file, and run the nethostfs.exe file
24. Now, a command prompt should pop up and stay up.. this is opening a port on your computer for the PSP to access, so fire wall'd or not, allow it.
25. Now, just go to your IrShell and if set correctly, press: L+Analog-DOWN and it should initialize your connection and in that command prompt, print some multi-threading issues and what not...
26. NOW! If running homebrew via PC, press: L+Analog-RIGHT This redirects AKA mounts your nethost0:/ drive as ms0:/
27. If you want to stream music and such, just go to the filebrowser, click the '..' AKA cd out of the current directory. Keep doing this until you reach the root of your memory stick... If you click it again, your into the drive selection menu. Here you can view files (if connected) on your HDD via nethost0:/, USb if connected and intialized via usbhost0:/ and UMD via disc0:/... then the reuglar ms0:/ for memory stick

After doing all this (correctly that is), you should be able to enjoy file streaming flawlessly. A few reminders from SG57 though, he says "any time you NEED to Wifi - ically connect, just go to the drive selection in the file browser and click 'nethost0:/' and it will automatically connect."

Now we go to Macca's USBHost tutorial.

1. Download irshell 1.6 and the usb host file drivers (all of which are included in this post)
2. Unzip them to an easy location, I unzipped mine on the root of my d:
3. Start the usbhoststfs.exe
4. Install irshell the usual way
5. Press l+ analog up to start the usb hostfs
6. Windows will now tell you that new hardware has been found, choose to specify a place for the drivers, then choose the directory where you unzipped the usbhostfs file, eg d: in my case. Choose the drivers folder then click next. It should say completed.
7. Hit l+ analog up again and you should be connected!
