it only gets better....
i can surf the net on the ps3 and now can sign into psn, but i can not go to any web pages on the computer.... ugh

Sounds like an IP conflict. This is when your computer has the same IP address as your PS3. Go back into your PS3 and change the last digits of the IP to something else. Go into your router and change the DMZ addy to match your new PS3 addy. Test everything.

ill try it
all this and i still have NAT 3

yup..hoos is right..you're having ip conflicts AND we need to bridge your modem (basically we need yoru modem to just pass the signal to the router and let the router do the work...the modem is doing to much filtering and is not as easy to prgram as the router.

It's all easier than it sounds

aim me if you catch me around and i'll walk you through it

if you have issues and cant aim me, call me 3522086274 and I'll help *unless im sleeping, working or fucking

lmao...
tomorrow thnx

anyone else got any ideas for me....

I can not connect to PSN, but I seem to have solved my other problem

ok...

I basically followed Nole's list with one change.... MTU=1492

NAT 2 and I am back online.

5 hours of trial & error...

Alright, i'm having problems again connecting to a few people. I even went direct and didn't have any luck connecting up with pounddarock. After entering everything manually, and I believe I did it correct, i am still getting a NAT 3 connection. What else can I look into to get this NAT 2 connection that I need?

Not sure of any other way to get NAT 2...

You may already have done this but when you go direct...Turn off router and ps3 both..connect cable from router to ps3. Turn on router, let it boot up. Then turn on your ps3. Simple steps, which you probably already know, but just in case you didnt.

Going direct, you should be good to go. Our connection today was just fine.
