O Refer to your PS3's Owner Manual on how to assign a static IP address to the PS3. How do you "open" ports using Airport Extreme "port mapping"? Is there an equivalent of the firewall log, so I could see actual requests and denials and get some more clues?Īll suggestions welcome.
I hit the Help button and it gives me a page about the other kind of port (the physical plug socket, not the drink or the seafaring industrial zone). However, all I can find in the Airport Admin Utility is port mapping, in terms of Public Port/Private Address/Private Port. So, I'm thinking the port-opening thing could be worth a shot. +For more information on how to open ports, please refer to the manual that accompanied the device or contact the manufacturer.+ +In order to use some games and features on PlayStation Network the following ports should be opened:+ +The most common of these are TCP and UDP ports which are used to exchange data between computers and the Internet.+ A 'port' is a type of connection that can be used by programs and computers to exchange data.+ +If you are unable to connect to the PlayStation Network you may need to open some ports on your router or modem. It prompts for a WPA Key, which I'm hoping means the password (min 8 characters etc), then I choose 'Easy' address settings, Auto for everything, and Test Connection fails with 'The connection to the access point has timed out.' I'm wondering if the clue is that it's a timeout rather than a password rejection etc. The 'Scan' option finds our Airport Extreme network and lists it as using WPA-PSK (which now I look, is what I've got in my Airport setup). I just got my Sony PS3, and spent my first couple of hours with it struggling with the wireless network setup.
