I've done this a bunch of times. Just grab the update file from Sony’s site, stick it in the right folders on your USB (PS3/UPDATE), and plug it into your console. Go to System Update and choose Storage Media. Easy-peasy!

Step 1: Download the latest PS3 update file from the PlayStation website and save it to a USB storage device in a folder named 'PS3', and inside that, a folder named 'UPDATE'. Step 2: Insert the USB device into your PS3, go to Settings > System Update > Update via Storage Media, and follow the on-screen instructions.

Download the update file, stick it on a USB, and let the PS3 do the rest. Boom, updated!

Just download the update file to a USB stick, insert it into the PS3, and update through System Settings. You don't need to be a tech genius for this!
