I have the same thing at my school all I had to do here was register my MAC address with the school then go to the internet explorer on the ps3 then sign in with your clean access name and password and I was good to go. Hope that helps

I bought a USB-NIC adaptor and ran a crossover cable from my laptop to the PS3. Used Windows Internet Sharing to share the connection between the built in ethernet and the USBNIC. It was plenty fast too. Got >1MB/s DLing from PSN.

If you do it the way I did, you don't need to give them the MAC address. At least, I didn't have to.

we have cisco clean access as well. All you have to do is go to web explorer, sign in with your school id, and then you're online capable
