Connecting ps3 wireless
hi,
Im having trouble trying to connect my ps3 to my wireless router, the ps3 picks up the signal, but cant pick up the ip address when chosing automatic. If inputted manually i get the dns error.
Now ive tried connect the ps3 up "wired" and everything works fine, and then i plugged it back to the pc and the ps3 still cant connect wireless
An suggestions?
Oh also tried connecting the Wii wireless but that didnt work so could it be my modem?
