Hi I am new to the fourms and I need some help with my PS3 Connection.

Well I am having a huge problem with my PS3 connection to the internet. Last week my PS3 connection was working great, no problems whats so ever. I stopped playing for a week because I was busy with school but then I tried to connect to PSN today and I couldn't sign in. My computer's internet was working fine and everything was working. I even used the cable to try to connect and when I look at my router it says everything is fine but on my ps3 I can't connect.

When I check the Internet Test on my PS3 my IP address gets timed out but my signal says 100%.

Please can someone help me on this problem. I really miss playing online.

Thank you for your time.

ok malik here is what i suggest, when your trying to play online with the wifi go to your network settings and make sure everything is enabled. after that go to the connection settings and see if your router is connecting with the ps3. if you've succeded in that go to your computer and unplug everything (router, wireless and not and turn off the comp) wait 2 minutes and plug everything back in. go and try to sign in again, if that doesnt work use the wired connection and be sure to go back to the network settings and connection settings and change to "wired connection" after thats been completed you should be able to sign in.

Sometimes the ps3 picks up a whole bunch of signals (when using the wireless router) and thats why you dont have an IP address. if theres anything i missed or you want to ask just post and i'll see what i can do.
