PS3 power

do you need a stepdown converter?
@SuperFastZombie where would this be noted?
Hey guys,
I would advise not using a power adaptor with the PS3 system. Its mentioned in the manual and may cause overheating.
The PS3 has an on board AC adaptor so all you need is a UK power lead figure 8 for slim models and a kettle lead for the old 'fat' systems. These are generic power leads so one from your local hardware store will do fine.
Any questions give me a shout.

I know PS4's were fine regardless of are of purchase, couldn't quite remember if PS3 was the same as I've only owned UK consoles in the UK.
Anyway, there's your answer. SuperFastZombie is the online support cyborg so remember that name and the links in the signature are very handy.
Hope you get back to enjoying your gaming.

Playstation 3 problem DLNA3 WRT54G

Hello,
Yesterday sony has updated the playstation 3 firmware with version 1.8 wich supports DLNA3. So you can acces media files on you pc.
If I activate the media sharing, the network keeps crashing. I cant log in on the playstation network and my pc is having problems accessing the internet. If I disable this sharing the problem is gone. So I know that is the problem.
A lot of users are having this problem, in US and EU. Forum link: http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=psnetwork&thread.id=62655
There are around 20 to 30 people having this problem after 1 day. So im not alone on this one.
Somewone said that it was a UPnP problem, that the router keeps crashing wich causes this problems.
Is this fixable?
I have a linksys wrt54G version 5 fw v1.02.0
Thanks
Owner of: Linksys WRT54G version 5

I have the Linksys WRT54GS v.5 with the most recent firmware update 1.52.0 and after updating the PS3 firmware to 1.8 it instantly kills my connection between my router and my ISP anytime I try to access anything online with the PS3 (Test Connection, Playstation Store, Internet Browser, or even at login on power-up).
After it kills my connection and I re-establish it I've tried numerous setting in the PS3 Network Settings and so far nothing has worked.
At first it always failed at Internet Connection with DNS Error (80710101) but after manually entering my primary and secondary DNS I can get it to proceed a bit further before it knocks me off and gives me error 80130208.
I also tries Wired and Wireless, same results.
I've tried turning off the PS3, my DSL, my router, and the PS3 power switch. I've made sure my router firmware is up-to-date and pressing its reset button. I've called my ISP.
After three hours of this I give up.
Please, if anyone figures this out please HELP! Thank you.
Update: A ton of people on the PS3 boards are expierencing the same problem with Linksys WRT54Gx model routers. A temporary fix is to disable the new Media Server feature Sony added with this firmware update.
However, it remains to be determined if this is a problem on Sony's end or Linksys since almost all other routers are working fine with this new feature.
Since this is a major new feature I sure hope Linksys/Sony gets this resolved SOON, PLEASE.
If anyone knows of some magic router configuration that will get these routers working with the new Media Server feature please share.
Thanks.

Use your warranty or service contract and open a support case with Sun.
http://www.sun.com/contact/support.jsp
If you have any third-party, non-Sun parts in the system,
remove them and do your diag-POST again.
Move SB0 to the slot for SB2 and repeat the test.
Move SB2 into SB0's position and repeat the original.
Do the errors follow the board or stay with the slot?
All those steps will eliminate any of three posibilities...

Going to Australia and need help with Power converters

Facts:
US uses 110v on 60hz
Australia 220v on 50hz
Making sure I understood that correctly. Devices I plan on bringing that will use power are PS3 Slim, MacBook Pro 2008 model, and WD 1TB External HDD. My DS, and Cell are charging via USB to save trouble of other cables.
Ideas I've had or thought of:
1. Get a power converter for a US Powerstrip, and then plug in my US items into the strip and then the strip into an AUS Converter into Australian outlet. Not sure if this fixes the voltage/frequency change.
2. Get power converters for all my devices. But, not sure if my devices needs ways of lowering the voltage/increasing frequency or something to help with the adjustment.
3. Buy a universal powerstrip, which is extremely costly and I wouldn't be able to have here in time (I leave Thursday). Unless Best Buy carrys one.

Check the specs on input voltage/frequency of your power supplies.
Many laptop power supplies are "universal/global" and are specced something like 80-265 volts AC 50/60 Hz, but not all. These will just need a connector adapter.
Unsure about the PS3 Slim - if it isn't universal it could be difficult as you'll need a 110/220 transformer, one big enough (power-handling wise) for the PS3 will be very bulky.
For the external WD HDD, if it doesn't have a universal supply, you're probably best off just finding a new wallwart for it that is capable of running on 220/50.
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

Use iMac in Target Display Mode with a Power Mac G4

I would like to connect my Power Mac G4 MDD (Model = http://support.apple.com/kb/SP63) to the new iMac (27 inch, Mid 2010) in Target Display Mode. That is, I want the new iMac to be the display for my Power Mac G4. Has anybody done this (including using the iMac 27 inch, Late 2009, which can also do this)? In a general sort of way, this sort of thing is described on this support page: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924.
The problem: The iMac requires a Mini Displayport connection. The PowerMac has ADC and DVI-I display connections and also came with an adapter for converting DVI-I to VGA. How can I convert/adapt to get the appropriate Mini Displayport connection?
Gefen makes a converter (http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8913) that will convert DVI-D to Mini Displayport, but the description explicitly says that it will work with DVI-D only while my PowerMac has DVI-I. I know that these are two different, incompatible connections.
Is there another converter that works with DVI-I? Or is there a way to adapt from DVI-I to DVI-D? Or how about a VGA or ADC to Mini Displayport converter?
Thanks.

japamac-
Thanks so much for your reply. You're right on target for what I'm looking for and that article is VERY helpful! If you don't mind, I do have a couple more questions/clarifications.
1) First, I think that I didn't read the Wikipedia reference concerning DVI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DigitalVisualInterface) closely enough. It includes the following paragraph. If I understand it and what you said, it shouldn't be a problem to connect the male DVI-D of the converter into the female DVI-I socket of my Power Mac. Right?
+The long flat pin on a DVI-I connector is wider than the same pin on a DVI-D connector, so it is not possible to connect a male DVI-I to a female DVI-D by removing the 4 analog pins. It is possible, however, to connect a male DVI-D cable to a female DVI-I connector. Many flat panel LCD monitors have only the DVI-D connection so that a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable will suffice when connecting the monitor to a computer's DVI-I female connector.+
2) I'm not clear on the difference between the Altona AT-DP200 and the Gefen converter. The Gefen converter is somewhat less expensive, so I'm trying to figure out what the downside is. The article you mentioned says that the ATP-DP200 "doesn't scale images", but that seems to only be an issue if I'm trying to connect other devices (PS3, Blu-ray), not if I just want to connect my Power Mac.
The description of the Gefen converter includes the following drawbacks:
+The only major drawback to Gefen's solution is no support for VGA devices or HDCP. A minor gripe would be the fact that the Gefen device only accepts one input resolution and only outputs one resolution (1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz). These limited options aside, the Gefen device looks like it could do the basic trick of transforming a DVI signal to Mini DisplayPort so that you could use your 27" iMac for a few more purposes, provided that the input signal carries the required 1920 x 1200 resolution.+
I'm not clear on what the practical impact of those limitations would be. I don't think the the lack of support for VGA devices or HDCP is an issue for my application. But I'm wondering about the statement that it only accepts one input resolution and outputs only one resolution (1920 x 1200) and the need for the input signal to carry 1920 x 1200. I take it, first of all, that the Power Mac can supply that input resolution. And, what is the impact of the device only having that resolution output to the iMac screen? That is, how would that look on the screen, ugly or okay? Finally, would the Altona device provide a better looking output on the iMac screen because it can apparently handle different resolutions? The manufacturer's description says, "Resolutions: all resolutions up to 1920x1200 (It is Important to select one of the resolutions that display
is capable of displaying, refer to your display’s users manual)."
Thanks again.

PS3 Freezing and can't connect the wifi

First of all I was playing Minecraft then I had a error code (forgot which one) and I was signed out of PSN and I my wifi could not connect to my PS3 and i did the connection test all over Youtube and for hours I was sitting in front of the T.V. don't know what to do. But then I tried turning the power off which only led to it freezing.I tried restoring the database,I tried refilling the corrupt files,I did this,I did that but nothing worked. So please anwser me and contact me about both wifi connection and my PS3 freezing.

You say that your files is corrupt and it freezes? Maybe it could be bad sectors on the harddrive? Hard to say what's the problem could be though... Best thing to do it to evaluate what could be wrong. Have you tried to backup your game saves and formated your harddrive? Have you tried to connect through an ethernet cable and not WIFI? If it works through a cable it could be faulty PS3 settings or your router. You can also try to reset you router. Or shout down the router for 5 mins and start it up again. If you see that error code again you can also type it down and use Google to find any solution.

I would sell my PS3 and buy an Apple TV if...

...it could view/record Freeview or Freesat (UK).
At the moment I have the PS3 with PlayTV, which works well, but I find myself hardly ever playing games on it any more, and using it mostly for music, photos, videos and TV. At the moment, we are really missing the online movie rental side of things, typically my wife and I will decide to rent a movie on the evening we want to watch it, but by the time we get to the Blockbuster in town, they don't have what we want. At the moment, I'm renting on iTunes, transferring to my iPhone and playing on the device through the TV... however I would prefer a more convenient and HD solution.
Apple TV could be a huge hit in the UK, it would fill the gap between home-produced media (photos, home movies), Music playback, broadcast TV, HD viewing and on-demand Movie rentals without being location specific (a la Virgin) and without warranting huge subscription fees and horrible user interfaces (a la Sky). A Flash-supported browser would be sweet too for YouTube and iPlayer (don't know if this is already the case).
I like the idea of being able to search for a Movie/TV show using Apple TV, it checks the broadcast EPGs as well as iPlayer and the iTunes Store and presents the option of recording the broadcast, streaming from iPlayer or buying/renting the item. If I choose to record it, it would then be the icing on the cake if I could then transfer it back to my iTunes library on my Mac, or directly to an iPhone/iPod in h.264 format.
It would be media bliss... what would I pay for this? I would expect to pay about the same as a second-hand PS3 with PlayTV.
How would I expect Apple to achieve this? I would expect that an Apple TV with greater HDD capacity and the TV tuner as an option that, the Tuner could have separate model numbers for different regions and standards... so for the UK, there would be two modules, one for Freeview (DVB-T) and one for Freesat (DVB-S2). Plus a software update. The Tuner modules could even house hardware h.264 encoder so that what's recorded is in an iTunes friendly format (unlike the PS3 which records everything in MPEG2... useless for transferring to a portable device).
The Cherry on the icing would be the ability to rip my DVD collection into iTunes... but that's another discussion.
thanks,
Glyn.

Indeed, Apple IS a content provider, they also sell hardware! I can imagine that the Apple TV would simply fly off the shelf if this kind of functionality was included. The future success of iTunes depends on popularising Apple hardware within the home, especially when it comes to on-demand video. Being able to record TV is what the majority of people would regard as the main feature of the device. In fact, it would be very much in-line with my perception of Apple's current strategy... demonstrate the key 'selling' feature of the device as the headliner then when the consumer buys the hardware, all the other brilliant functionality presents itself and intices the consumer to 'want more' by imposing a sense of opportunity. Apple TV would reach the masses by headlining "Record TV, then sync straight to your iPhone/iPod". Then Apple could spin up a whole wad of cash by suggesting and selling TV episodes that they've missed, downloaded from iTunes.
I appreciate what the current iteration of Apple TV achieves, and I envy it over my PS3 for its simplicity... Despite not owning one, I think the idea of being able to 'push' and 'sync' content to your device as opposed to streaming it over a network is a much welcomed feature... DLNA has caused nothing but trouble for us and obviously requires another device to be switched on in order to serve up the content. Not very power friendly, reliable or convenient. You can of course copy content to the PS3, but then if you make an edit to a video, photo or playlist you need to manually re-download it again.

PS3 / Xbox 360 / PC Router Guide For GAMERS

Downloadable for Wordpad or Microsoft Word: http://www.filefactory.com/file/b1e67ga/n/Gaming_Router_Guide.rtf
Or just read below:
PS3, XBOX 360, PC GAMING
Router Guide and Modem Guide
Introduction:
Having issues trying to get your PS3, or XBOX 360 from Strict, or Moderate NAT? Want to get Type 2, "Open" status? Then follow this guide step for step.
(Please refer to your manual or other posts if you are unsure how to access a certain step, or post a quick reply on the forum. You can usually access your Linksys router via Internet Explorer by typing 192.168.1.1 - password is usually admin, username blank or admin as well.)
All of these steps were performed on the following test setup:
1 - Laptop PC (Windows XP)
1 - PS3 Console
1 - Motorola Cable Modem (SB6120)
1 - Linksys Router (WRT310N V1)
Firmware Update:
1)   Download the latest firmware for your router
2)   Install firmware onto router.
3)   Wait 1 minute after it has finished
4)   Unplug your Cable or DSL Modem's power, and ALL other devices that connect to the router. Leave them off.
5)   Click the "Reset to factory defaults" button in the router."
6)   Wait 1 minute after the lights stop flashing erratically.
7)   Physically go to the router, using a pointed object press the "Reset" button and HOLD for 30 seconds, then release.
8)   Access the router interface (example: 192.168.1.1)
Quick Tips and Information:
*The following settings are assuming you are now at "Default" settings. If you are not, than some settings may have been overlooked and you may have the wrong settings.
*You MUST use a WIRED connection for these steps. You can even use your PS3 or Xbox 360, and use the browser to access the router if your console is a wired connection. That is what I had to do, because my laptop is wireless only.
*The biggest mistake people make, is not clicking "Save Settings" at the bottom of each page, before moving to the next section. You MUST click "Save Settings" on each little page. Including the sub-pages. This is a huge deal. Even though the settings will "Stay" how you clicked them, they do not actually go into effect unless you hit "Save Settings" on every page.
*At this stage, any unnecessary devices must be turned off. Only the router and one device should be connected through wired Ethernet. Use that device to perform the following steps:
SETUP > Basic Setup
9)   Internet Connection Type: Automatic DHCP
10) MTU: Manual, 1500
11) DHCP Server: Enabled
12) Start IP Address: 192.168.1.2
13) Maximum Number of Users: 2 (set for how many devices you have. 1 laptop, 1 ps3 = 2)
14) Client Lease Time: 0
15) Time Zone: Set for your time, and "Check" automatically adjust for daylight savings.
*Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
16) DDNS and Mac Address Cloning tabs should have "Disabled" option set.
*Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
WIRELESS > Basic Wireless Settings
17) Change to "Manual"
18) Network Mode: Wireless-G Only (My laptop is wireless and has a G-card. Set accordingly)
19) SSID: set this to something you like: (example Pro Gamer)
20) Standard Channel: 11
21) SSID Broadcast: Disabled
22) Wireless Security and Mac Filter tabs should have "Disabled" option set.
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
WIRELESS > Advanced Wireless Settings
23) AP Isolation: Disabled
24) Frame Burst: Enabled
25) Basic Rate: All
26) Transmission Rate: 54 Mbps (I am using wireless G. Set accordingly, but do not use auto.)
27) CTS Protection Mode: Disabled
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
SECURITY > Firewall
28) SPI Firewall Protection: Disabled
29) "Uncheck" ALL options: Filter Anonymous Internet Requests, Filter Multicast, Filter Internet NAT Redirection, Filter          IDENT, Proxy, Java, Active X, Cookies.
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
30) VPN Pass-through tab: should have everything "Enabled"
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab.
APPLICATION AND GAMING > All Tabs
31) Skip this section for now, however if you did NOT reset your router to defaults before beginning. UNDO anything you         already have enabled on each of the five tabs.
ADMINISTRATION > Management
32) Router Password: change to something you use
33) Web Utility Access via Wireless: Disabled
34) Remote Management: Disabled
35) UPnP: Disabled. Including the 2 options below it.
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
36) On the Diagnostics tab, click "Reboot" (may be located on very first page under “Setup”)
37) Restart whatever machine you are currently using to do this.
38) Turn on all devices that will be connecting to the router, except the cable/dsl modem.
39) Log into the router with your new password. On the first, page you should see "DHCP Reservation" click this. At the top, you should see one device named PS3-something probably numbers. If it is blank but there is an IP address, that is okay too. Click the box to the right side of it. Your other devices should be there too, such as laptops and consoles, etc. Click the box next to each of them. Then Click, "Add Clients" Now you have just assigned a Static IP Address without going through the hassle of doing it manually. Now you will always have the same IP Address for each device.
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
40) Go to "Application and Gaming" click on the "DMZ" tab. Change DMZ to "Enabled."
Source IP Address: "ANY"
41) Now for the most important part. Most people use destination IP Address. However, if for some reason your IP address of your device changes, well then you are screwed. So instead, click MAC Address, then click "DHCP Client Table" and then "Select" the device that you GAME on, such as PS3 or Xbox360. Click "Close."
      *Click “Save Settings” before moving to another tab
***** IF you game on multiple devices, such as a desktop computer, and a ps3. You must DISABLE DMZ, and instead ENABLE UPnP. Please be sure to also enable the 2 options right Below UPnP. Many people do not enable the third, and sometimes even the second option. This causes hosting/joining issues, as the ports do not open/close properly. If you only have 1 gaming device, DMZ is the better choice. However, if you game on more than 1 device, use UPnP.
***** DO NOT ENABLE DMZ & UPnP TOGETHER.
42) Go to "Administration" > "Diagnostics" > "Reboot"
43) Restart ALL devices (Except cable/dsl modem) then connect them to the router.
44) I would connect my laptop now, by using the dell wireless manager I have, use the wizard to find "Non-Broadcasting"       devices. Then I manually type in my SSID: (Pro Gamer) it pops up. Click "Connect,” then "Lock" then "Apply"
45) For my PS3 I turn it on, go to Network Settings, then Connection Settings, "CUSTOM"
      Leave everything Automatic or "Default" except for these:
      MTU: 1500 / UPnP: Disabled (If DMZ is enabled on the router) / UPnP: Enabled (If UPnP is enabled on the router)
If your console (ps3/xbox360) was the wireless device, then simply select, "Wireless" and click manual SSID type "Pro Gamer" or whatever your SSID is, then continue with the rest of the settings. Security should be none/disabled.
ALMOST DONE!
This next tip is almost completely UNKNOWN by the gaming community. However, it is spectacular. Did you know the cable companies increase their speeds over time for FREE? Here is how to get your free upgrade. Even if your speed does not change, this will upgrade your Cable Modem's firmware! (DSL modems must be done manually, check online.)
Use a 7/16 wrench if connections are too tight.
While the Modem is OFF, unscrew the coax cable from the modem. PAY ATTENTION to this step. Now unscrew the other side from the wall or splitter. Then, REVERSE them. Reconnect the coax cable to your modem using the OTHER side (the one that was plugged into the wall), and vice versa. Make sure they are snug, but do not over tighten.
What does this do? Well I do not know the exact inner workings, but my friend who works for Comcast told me about this trick. It forces their system to re-register your Cable Modem. So now, you get a new IP Address, and it forces your modem to check for the latest firmware update. Along with that, come your increased speeds for FREE.
a)   Now, plug in the power to your modem. Wait until all lights are steady.
b)   Then go to your computer, (Do not use the PS3 or Xbox for this step)
c)   Type 192.168.100.1 (might be different for your modem, Google it)
d)   This is your MODEM's page.
e)   Look around for an option that says, "Reset to Defaults"
f)   Click "Reset to Defaults"
g)   Wait 30 seconds. It will not do anything.
h)   Now, you must click the other option, "Restart Cable Modem"
It will now clear out the memory, check for new firmware, get an updated IP address, and hopefully give you improved speeds!
That is all. Happy gaming! Visit www.speedtest.net and www.pingtest.net to test your connections.

Hey thanks for this, but one thing I have to ask is about the modem part. I unhook the cables and reversed them and then turned on the modem the lights are on and stable now. I have a sb6121 and when the modem is completely active it goes green, blue, blue, green, which is power, downstream, upstream and then online. But when I did what you said it is green, blue, "green"!, green. So since its different do I wait for the upstream to turn back to blue, or do I have to call comcast and give them the mac address again? I have been waiting for 5 mins so far and don't want to restore defaults and restart till I know I should for sure.

Power Spike Threw My Network? PLEASE HELP!!!

Tuesday night we had a power spike that seems to have killed my network. I wanted to know has this happened tpo anyone else and if so how did you fix it. My problem is this,my ISP is Mediacom, I have a 10 MB connection, a Linksys WRT54GS V7 firmware 7.50.2 and I cannot get anything to connect to my wireless network. My pc that is wired into my router is fine. Getting good connection. I also have a Playstation 3 that connects wireless, Xbox 360 that connects wireless through a Linksys WGA54G, a pc that connects trough a Belkin wireless desktop card, and a Nintendo Wii that also connects wireless. Now Tuesday during the day everything was connected and fine. Wednesday I woke up to find that everything on my network had reset themselves and would no longer connect to the existing network. So I tried to reset everything on a new network. I couldn't get anything to connect. I replaced my router with the same model number and upgraded the firmware to v7.50.2. I called Mediacom and they reset my internet connection saying that my "modem was getting too many signals form my electronics and not my router"(?). Everything came up fine only to go down after about 5 mins (right after I tried to connect my PS3). Afterwards I called Mediacom back had them reset my connection and only tried my pc. It would connect but it would say little or no connectivity. Called Linksys support and a nice lady named Marie told me to change my from TKIP to AES change my channel to 11 and so forth and so on. It worked for about 5 mins and went down again. I called them back and again they changed my channel and lower my MTU. This time it would work but it was incredibly slow. Now I have no idea what to do and am quickly coming to my wit's end. Please help.

I dunno dude. This is killing me. Mediacom won't help me because they don't support in home networks. I have never had a problem before now. I had the original router for almost a year. Power spikes are quite common throughout this area and it was always fine. Now all of a sudden I have this. I dunno what to do. I need all the help that I can get. I have never had a problem with any of my Linksys products. Just run the CD and plug in everything and I'm online. Simple. Lately I have seen more of my admin screen than I had ever hoped to.

Power Mac G5 PCI Ethernet Drops Internet or always loading.

Hi,
I have a very weird problem.
The ethernet card on my Power Mac stopped working and I bought a PCI Ethernet card to replace it. I also have the Airport Card installed and the wireless internet works perfect but it is not ideal to stream video to my PS3 or my Macbook.
The PCI card presents a very particular problem, when I connect using the PCI ethernet, I try opening Safari with apple.com as Home page and it never loads, it loads to the middle and stays there. If I try loading another page after like iPhone blog, sports or google, it loads fine and seems to be ok. If I try YouTube or Google video, it happens again and it freezes.
I have tried the following:
Open Firefox and since Firefox has Google as Home page, it loads just fine but after browsing 2 - 4 websites it sort of freezes.
Erase the network location and network setting for PCI ethernet.
Physically change the slot of the card on the Power Mac.
I got the PCI Card replaced by a new one and still same problem.
Change the cable, router port (I have a Time Capsule).
I would like to know if there's any way to identify this problem to the card or the computer or the network settings. It is very weird and I don't know if I buy a PCI wireless 802.11 n card will be different?
I did a speed test and gave me 9372 kbps download speed and 732 kbps uploard speed but as I write this topic the progress bar is stuck at the middle and is still like loading the page.
I would appreciate any suggestions and Help!!
Thank you.

I should have asked earlier, but did you do the basic trouble-shooting step of resetting the PRAM.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Also if it might work without the drivers, did you try it previously with the driver not installed?
As a test, you can try creating a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane. Log out and log in to the new account. Do you have the same problem in the new account? If you do not, the problem is somewhere in your current user account. If you do have the same issue, the problem is with your overall system or with hardware.
If the latter (the issue recurs in more than one user account), do you have a place, such as a second internal drive or external FireWire drive, where you can install a fresh Mac OS X system, and boot from it? If it works with a new installation, you have narrowed the problem down to your current overall system. You can focus your trouble-shooting there. Or you can do an +Archive and Install+ option re-install. This option will give you a fresh system while preserving your user data, but be sure to do a backup of at least your personal data in case something bad happens.
If you have the same problem with a fresh system installation, this product is somehow not compatible with your hardware.

WRT160N with PS3 "IP Fragments..."

A run down... I've spent many hours googling trying to figure out what the problem is and I cant seem to find out. Hopefully someone here can give me a hand.
When I run connection tests on my PS3 i'm getting NAT type 2... but! It says "The router in use may not support IP fragments and the communication features of some games may be restricted"
I cannot join any of my friends games (it just gives me the error that I cannot connect to host) nor can I join anyone in voice chat.
I've figured out my MTU, its 1500, default....
I've forwarded all my ports...
Toggled through different wireless channels....
Put my PS3 in DMZ...
None of it seems to work! I don't know what it could be, I had the same problem with my Belkin Wireless N router (Model F5D8233-4v3) so I went out and bought this Linksys router, but I'm still getting the same problem
Before when I ran off of my very bad Dynex Wired router I was fine (hard to believe considering they make terrible products) and had no problems what so ever
Any help or insight would be appreciated

To open NAT on your PS3 you need to change certain settings on your Router as well as on your PS3. You can try to change these settings and it will make NAT type open on your PS3.

PS3 + 24" LED - a solution, but are there better ones?

Hi everyone,
As you might have seen here is the best solution yet to the PS3 + Apple 24" LED Cinema Display Problem -
http://www.cinemaview.com/models.html
However, seeing as this is more an allrounder, are there any cheaper solutions that would be able to convert the PS3's HDMI signal for DisplayPort?
There is a solution of 4 adaptors (HDMI to HDMI, HDMI female to DP, DP Female to DP Female, DP to MiniDP Female - then to 24"), but would this work without conversion of the signal?
Are there any solutions that allow input of my PS3's 1080p's video signal into my mac and then out again through displayport? (Any EyeTV like products?)
(BTW - sound would be handled by 5 speakers (coaxial Z-5500 Digital) so that is not a worry)
I will be buying the display if any of this works.
If not I will have to toss up,
Apple 24" LED + convenience with my Mac + Z-5500 - compatability
vs.
HP L2475W + PS3 + Z-5500 + compatibility - convenience
Difficult!

I'll be a little more full in my response this time and see if your opinion changes.
The PS3, at the moment, is being run on a Sony Bravia 46" 1080p LCD which to be honest is pretty magnificent.
If I had the money and my dad would let me, I would be installing Z-5500s downstairs with the PS3, and upstairs in my room with the mac.
The apple monitor, in my opinion, is my dream monitor. It is the one I would like, it is the one my dad is getting for his new mac tomorrow (Yes I am jealous), and it is the one I would be buying hands down if it had a DVI, HDMI, Component, or even VGA input.
The hp monitor has the better versatility but from what I have read, the Apple is still the better display. You talk of speakers - no interest, but isight and mic are (adium messenger).
The thought of having the use of 5.1 speakers + 1920x1080p + 24" + PS3 in my room is highly appealing.
The thought of having the use of 5.1 speakers + 1920x1200 + 24" + APPLE LOGO + MacBook + Convenience and Tidyness is just as appealing.
What would I be missing with the 24" ACD -
- The PS3 wouldn't have surround 5.1
What would I be missing with the 24" HP -
- The Apple Logo
- The convenience of tri-port power
- Seamless integration between computer and monitor (just like a desktop)
I can't say I use the PS3 more than 2-4 times a month. I use my computer every single day for at least 3-4hrs, often more.
Is the Apple for me?

Ps3 : hdmi to vga on dell lcd monitor

i recently bought a ps3 and the only place i can play it in is my dell monitor in my room. i bought a hdmi to vga cable and it didnt work and i tried holding the power button until 2 beeps. do i need a converter, new monitor or a new cable ? my monitor is dell e176fpf monitor.

The first reply was accurate. HDMI (and DVI) are digital and VGA is analog.
There are many cords on Amazon and Ebay that claim they will work (its a scam, and a brilliant one at that).
you would need an active converter (if you want audio)

If you were able to convinve yourself/parents to spend a wee bit more money you'd be much happier with this.

That is also assuming your local store has them in stock....
:-P
Good luck

No signal from PS3

I have model 56HM66 tv that works fine until I hook PS3 to it. When I do there is no signal at all.I use an hdmi cable that works fine with the PS3 on other tvs. I also hooked a dvd player to the same port with the same hdmi cable and it worked fine. Does anyone know why there is no signal from the PS3?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This seems to be a problem with PS3s and their video settings. First, have the PS3 in standby. This means that it's turned "off," but the power button in the back is turned on. There should be a red LED. Next, press the power button with your finger, but continue holding it until it beeps twice and resets the video. Hopefully that fixes it.
Because your DVD player works with the same port and cable, you know the TV's fine.
