You can update using the update PS3 using USB thumbdrive (download thru PC, its fast)

1. Download PS3 update from PS website or here http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...933&hl=firmware (thx ninja for links, he's the best) (Firmware 2.53) 130MB+ ... always check firmware news at Play B3yond Community Thread...

2. In USB drive, create folder (CAPITALISED name folder) called PS3. Then inside PS3 folder, create a folder UPDATE... put file PS3UPDAT.PUP there

3. Put ur USB drive into PS3, then go to Select Settings > System Update > Update via Storage Media

4. Just follow the procedures... then its done. You can check system version information by selecting Settings > System settings > System Information.

Need help got error 80710102.... what is that mean?
obtain IP add is succes.. but Internet Connection is Failed..

did i missed something? juz change my router using Belkin Wireless G..
already set in MAC ADD... port forwarding...

and still cannot login ino PSN Network..

usually its DNS problem or firewall...

u use streamyx?

Bro Colt, is that a DNS error, right? suggest check your WEP setting, enable 'shared' option for security number then double check the registered number..

THank a lot...
does it matter which update to download?
I mean there are Japan, Asia and US, which one to go for?
THank again

in fact all of the firmwares are universal... choose which one that u prefer...

aww.. thank a lot man...
downloading now...
btw, see if i am wrong abt this...

After downloading i will get a file PS3UPDAT.PUP

In the usb drive create a folder name PS3. In this folder i create another folder name UPDATE.
Then i put PS3UPDAT.PUP in the UPDATE folder.

Connect the usb drive and go to Settings > System Update > Update via Storage Media

I hope i get it right
Thank a lot

u're on the right path

will it give me security code... if setting to WEP?

what about wired connection seem face a same problem..

seem like your firewall already block the port...

Look through the FAQ on 1st page, did not come across my question, Anyway would like to ask the gurus here,

I have a SDTV, and will not be upgrading to the HDTV yet .. still saving money
So I have my composite Red, White, Yellow cable that I can connect the PS3 to the SDTV.

Now I have read that S-video will provide an improvement, so I would like to ask if it is worth an effort to purchase a S-video PS3 cable. If so, where can I get one and how much will it cost?

Thanks in advance

eh? you need to enter the code/number by yourself (like a password)...then enter again the WEP codes in your PS3

There will be a very slight improvement bro, but you won't really be able to see a lot of difference on an SDTV.

What's the price for PS3 now?

how to unlocked the firewall?

well you can always disable firewall in connection setting, but no need to..cos firewall is important

wanna ask if i buy a asian ps3 set..what region games should i buy? and where can i send my ps3 to for the warranty?

me and colt have the same problem

and im using belkin too lol

only 1 router? or 2 router in network? pc can online?

try using opendns for dns instead of normal isp-specified dns

* 208.67.222.222
* 208.67.220.220
