You need to have a special converter or modem which is made for fiber optic networks. Usually such modems have a lan port for wireless routers or network switches.

Your modem must have a LAN port. Use a LAN cable of CAT-5 at least. Your router has a LAN port with "internet" or "WLAN" label next. This port is made to connect the router and the modem.

You just switched to fiber optic wireless internet and your psp says it is non supported?

Fiber optic wireless internet does not exist. What you might want say is you have fiber optic internet and a wireless router connected to it. Anyway computers do not care which media is used to transmit signals. If your psp can't connect to internet it has nothing to do with the fact you have fiber optics. I would check wireless connection options in your router settings.

What is the difference between a wireless NIC and an Ethernet NIC?

Wireless is just that; it's a wireless connection to your modem or router, which works by sending information through the air, much like cell phones or radio. By that same token, it is subject to interference, and people other than yourself may be able to remotely access your Internet connection if they can get past whatever security you've set up for it. Ethernet cable on the other hand is a physical cable for sending the same information; because it is not subject to the same interference as wireless, it is more reliable. Furthermore, if you make it so that you need to physically connect with a router, you can completely prevent the above scenario of someone hacking into and using your Internet connection through wireless. However, getting that physical connection can be arduous in a household with multiple computers because you need to find a way to get the cable from those computers to the router; avoiding this one-time hassle is why many people choose to use wireless instead.
