i cant not get this to work and cant connect to anyone onlie, i have tried turning off UPNP, i have put dmz on the ip the ps3 is using, i have tried port forwarding using the tcp and udp numbers from the playstation knowledge centre and still it fails

my ps3 is in the dmz in my router settings, never had any issues and much easier than messing about with port forwarding

Are you using Wifi?

I had alot of issues with my PS3 not connecting to anything but once i started using a hardwired cable its been alot better.

Still couldn't connect to the race today though :xmad:

it was wired, i have just tried changing to wireless but on the connection test it fails on uPnP now, changed it back to wired and fails on NAT. i really dont understand it, it fails if i set the ip to be in DMZ or not :(
