ok so i got my replacement ps3 today and i was jsut setting it up and i noticed that this ps3 is NAT type 3 (my old one was type 2)... how do i change this back?

please note that i havent changed any settings since getting this new ps3, i just plugged in my cables and expected things to be the same but obviously not and it makes no sense to me. my old one worked fine off the bat, didnt need to add ports or anything... i've now added the ports i am supposed to and its still type 3.

is this a ps3 issue or router issue? (router im on is a **** effort from o2)
 
well i switched back to me old router to check and its back to NAT type 2 without the need to alter anything so i guess it was a fault with the crappy o2 router. i still don't quite understand though since i didnt change anything... oh well probably better that i dump that o2 router for good anyway
 
The router probably needed a reboot as, as far as its concerned its a new MAC address and may not update the tables correctly...
