PS3 Disconnection Issues

Lead_Head · 3 Feb 2009 at 00:46

Hello all,

My ps3 is really starting to pee me off now. I mainly play FIFA on it and it constantly kicks me off before I even get chance to play a full 90 mins.

I've got a linksys WRT54GSv4 and my ps3 is connected wirelessly with a NAT type 2. I've put the latest dd-wrt firmware on to the router but this hasn't solved the problem.

My ps3 is on a static ip of 192.168.1.132, all ports in the FIFA manual are forwarded to this ip.

uPnP is disabled along with media server on my ps3.

I've even put 192.168.1.132 in to my dmz and enabled it and that doesn't even work!

What else am I doing wrong in order to get a full 90 mind out of this game!!

In my personal experience, in anything but ideal conditions, the wireless connectivity in the PS3 sucks.

I hate to say it, but hook it up via ethernet and I bet it doesn't disconnect once.

Turn on uPnP?

No mine is hooked up and I still have the occasional internet connection error pop up.

This. I had disconnects all the time on my PS3 until I set up uPnP on my router, sorted it out.

whats the connection strength of the wireless in xmb?

Connection strength is 100%, the router is only in the next room.

I have uPnP activated on my router, it's disabled on my PS3 because I've got it setup to work through 192.168.1.132

Should I put uPnP to enabled on the PS3?

Yep.
