Let us unite together for those who have to/want to use wireless broadband for online gaming on 3rd gen console, share wit us all about what u have been through while using 3G or HSDPA network in online gaming. help others who have problem trying to get their 3rd gen console online wit wireless BB network.

this bellow is what i put together for those who need help in setting up their ps3 to play online with wireless BB network. i'm sorry i dont provide xbox setup cos i dont hv one to test it out hehe, maybe someone out there can contribute on the xbox set up? anyway here goes



method to do an internet connection sharing (ICS) on PlayStation3 for XP computers

First off u will need a cross cable for the connection

1. Connect the cross cable from ur pc to your ps3
2. Go to control panel > network connection > right click property on ur modem (this could be ur phone modem or USB modem)
3. Advance > click ICS option then click “allow other users to connect throught this computer”

4. Then after this click the setting button on the ICS option.

5. Click these item in the box in the options
UDP
DNS
HDCP
HTTP
HTTPS


That’s it! ur done on the computer side.

now for the ps3 part

1. Go to network setting
2. Then select internet connection setting
3. They will ask u to select a setting method, select custom
4. Next they will ask u to connect wired or wireless connection, select wired
5 from here, select these bellow:

Operation Mode: auto-detect
IP Adress: automatic
DHCP Host Name: Do not use
DNS: Automatic
MTU: Automatic
Proxy Server: Do not use
UPNP: enable

Once all this is done, there is nothing to do but to Sign IN and play online! hope it helps guys!

Nice guide Borneo

hope it will help the other.. GAMER

nice job...actually i've been bombarded with lot of question on how to share the connection using the cross cable and now got a thread dedicated to it.


im also a Wireless BB user but im using Huawei B932 modem from maxis. This modem already have RJ-45 slot to plug and play with your ps3

hope so too

right on! will add ur name to the list. thats a modem to drool for ... so with the slot ready, do u still have to do the ICS setup? hows maxis during gaming any good? what NAT type did u get?...i got NAT 3 for mine

the hsdpa connection is good enough for gaming? no lags?

well they are lags n what not, but they are few reports of ppl playing online without sudden disconnection during gameplay which is a plus. and from my experience, i did not encounter any problem playing around in the US playstation HOME but on the other hand some tmnet users could not even log in.

maybe it depends on the 3g coverage in that area..

This post has been edited by alpha_company: Apr 7 2009, 01:09 AM

yup it always does

maxis 3g and celcom 3g..which is better to use for online gaming and more reliable?

it all depends actually, right now i'm using a phone as a modem so u can imagine the restriction of data transfer through all the activity.

so far maxis seems to be ok, thats what i heard from other people, i'm using celcom 3g, and not HSDPA and yet i still can enjoy multiplayer in liberty city but of cos wit minor lags and a few issue cos i'm on NAT type 3. planing to get a proper usb modem n upgrade to HSDPA and test it out myself

This post has been edited by Borneo928: Apr 7 2009, 01:34 AM

im also using maxisbb with my ps3. so far there is A LOT lagging issues with my maxisbb. (maybe my area not much 3g coverage, it depends on the area)
but sumtimes the connection is really fast. My package comes with ZTE mf600 modem that have only one RJ-45 cable and phone cable. And i use D-LINK 8-port Switch for my ps3 and other 6 pc as well.
No need extra setup just plug and play!! about the NAT type usually get type 2 or 1. dont have type 3.

meksis berokben podowen....

I am celcom bb user connect using USB modem. HSDPA signal in my area very good so i have no problem while gaming but to download patch/demo a little bit slow. And i am using router instead of cross cable.

sblom nih signal meksis aku warna biru gelap... kini sudah btukar ke wana biru cerah.. so maksudnye.. meksis da upgred...

nk gaming online xder masalah.. cuma dpend pd sever.. sever mcm p***.. maka p*** la gem tuu..

biasa la.. mende free...

nak mantapo tukar la ke kotak360

well im using a maxis huawei E960 that have wifi n 4 other lan port... atm so far so good just plug n play

list of WBB gamers has been updated guys

i dont need to do setup. all i need to do is configure the network on PS3 side. So far my online gaming is great. well, lagging and what not is depend on server, and the line condition. During rainy day, sometimes the connection deteriorate into an unplayable online session.

As for the NAT, i only got NAT 2

same to me...

me too

i remember there is one time i got NAT3, got any problem or what?

it will be difficult for u to use voice communication when u got nat3

ic....thats why i cant hear clearly what other people talking while playing KZ2

NAT2 is the best you can get for any type of wireless connection. NAT1 is only for wired connections. Well Nat 3 means your connection has firewall and it sucks basically for connectivity purposes.

btw..bro borneo..nak tanya sket..

the cross cable can we use normal LAN cable? or need to find the computer to computer cable which is look exactly like LAN cable?

its normal LAN cable.. the only different between normal and crossover is the arrangement of the wire at the end of each cable.

ok2~ thanks~

how's the speed? I'm using Maxis' HSPA wireless broadband and even for normal surfing, it's pretty slow.

Hi all expert. I need help. I'm planning to get a D Link DIR-451 combine with my HuaWei E270 USB modem to gain Internet access for my PS3. Is that good enough? I wanted to play a lot of game, like street fighter 4 and so on. I'm using celcom D68. Will it lag?

Added on June 1, 2009, 5:22 pmHi all expert,

I'm planning to get a D Link DIR-451 wireless router with huawei E270 USB modem to gain Internet access for my PS3. My current purpose is to play Street fighter 4 network battle. Is that fast enough? Will it be laggy? Please help me on this.

Added on June 3, 2009, 8:22 amas far as i understand .. get a celcom bb -> usb into laptop - > connect using cable from laptop to ps3 - > setting2 follow the first page .. betul ke ?

what i dont understd is how to connect from laptop to ps3 ? which `hole` from laptop to which `hole` in ps3 ? is it the LAN `hole` in laptop to anything that fits the LAN cable in the ps3 ?

and as i surf more got thread about router la plak .. wat is that ? i need to buy that too ke?

This post has been edited by watever77: Jun 3 2009, 08:22 AM

i already reply ur PM about this

LOL dont judge a book by it's cover

all u need is a cross cable and your wireless broadband usb modem
which "hole" to connect in ur ps3 n ur laptop, is a RJ45 'hole' the 'hole' for the cross cable to connect in

this is the cross cable (rj-45 cable)


connect to this 'hole' in ur laptop/PC (rj45 socket)


same goes to the ps3 connect the cable to the 'hole' that says LAN



hope this is clear for you, cheers

i haven't figure out a way to get NAT2 from NAT3, i never heard users having NAT2 by using ICS way to connect, with usb modem or phone

This post has been edited by Borneo928: Jun 8 2009, 10:32 PM

hey ... manage to connect ... but sometimes getting RAS error code

Added on June 8, 2009, 10:03 pmhehe yes .. got the ics option done .. my ps3 can go online now hee ..

This post has been edited by watever77: Jun 8 2009, 10:03 PM

good to hear that bro, simple as 1 2 3 will add you to the wireless BB gamers, enjoy!

noww im getting RAS error code 633 sometime 619 without even connecting ps 3 to the laptop .. cant even online using laptop .. it must be my `ehem` windows la .. frequently got this dr watson post mortem debugger error .. windows explorer error ... dan macam2 error lagi hehe .. antivirus if start it will jammed the laptop with mmmanyy pop up window ..

i tried using the usb bb to another pc and it was usable .. so confirmed my ehem windows la making the connection unstable somehow hehe ..

p/s : all of the problem happens after i tried to validate windows but failed

oouh..so gamers that can have NAT2 must be using the modem that have LAN port isn't?

the modem so expensive..400+ waaa~

afaik, NAT3 gives prob for games such as LBP(PS3) as it has to connect to players..

btw..update my name as well..thanks~

ok .. prblem solved after formatting .. im using celcom bb rm98 n constantly have hsdpa signal (only 2 bar)
so tested games so far are as followed ..
1. home - no problem .. been to central plaza , theater n bowling alley.. played pool no problem ..
2. pes 09 - cant connect .. tubik msj dns error ..
3. re5 - coop with some one from usa .. no lag problem evrythin is ok
4. soul calibur4 - no problem .. can play with others fine ... but sumtimes got lag
5. gta4 - cant connect ... bcos i dunno how hehe
6. internet - can browse , surf with speed depends on coverage ..
7. mgs online - got update shows 3300 minutes to download .. too long ...so i dont try this yet .. im on 1.00ver btw ..
6. psnnetwork - currenly downloding infamous .. 5 hours to finish ....

Add me in the list. Been using celcom bb to play online with my ps3. Lucky the signal is quite good since im living near kl. The only drawback, no online for me usually in the middle of the month. Connection got capped already.

Downloading new updates/game patches at home is a no no for me. I just bring my ps3 to the office to fully utilize the office bandwidth (of course when my boss is not around).

while updating at the office u can play game also hahaha

lucky u !

Hi all, anyone here tried before using celcom bb pared with DIR-451 router? If so, anyone getting Nat type 2?

I am using celcom bb with dir-451, i tried port forwarding and DMZ it, still the same. Any idea?

i'm not sure, but correct me if i'm wrong, i think that method of connecting will still make u stay at NAT 3, because the source of the internet still needs to go through a router (all that data processing) then out again to the console itself. almost the same thing as using the ICS on ur laptop/desktop.

those who got NAT 2 using wireless BB are usually using direct modem connection, like the Huawei B932 modem that K-end is using. anyways are you using a USB modem to connect to that router?

Yup, I am using Huawei E170 connect to DIR-451. I'd saw on some threads that teaching ppl Port forwarding and DMZ their static ip address for PS3.

They have to forward 6 ports:
TCP: 80, 443, 5223
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658

Theards show this works for many people that getting NAT Type 2 from NAT Type 3.

Type 3 is ok, but sometimes will laggy when i play SF4 online. So i think if i am on NAT Type 2, will solve this "laggy" things...

So anyone know something i did wrong way or?

Thanks. =)

This post has been edited by Jasonkwk86: Jun 30 2009, 09:14 PM

i see, but are they using wireless BB?

Yup, they all using broadband. Some of them in US, using BB with a router, still getting NAT Type 3 after doing Port forwarding and DMZ their PS3 with Static IP address. Their routers are familiar too, e.g. Dlink, Linksys, Belkin etc...

For those who CAN'T get NAT 2 after doing Port forwarding and DMZ, They recommand to check with their ISP is it lock down something in the modem. BUT mine is Huawei USB modem, i can't even config it.

So i am asking anyone here get NAT 2 with a USB modem. =)

Thanks for replying Borneo.

i'm using vista anyway..

really..what is ur ip setting?

dunno...i set it up automatic...on set up DNS manually to 4.2.2.1 and below is 4.2.2.2

i see..my prob is..the ps3 does not detect any ip..then all below setting would be failed also..

This post has been edited by aaron_15ryderz: Sep 4 2009, 01:00 PM

yo aaron thanks for the dns 4442 thing , it helps solving my dns error problems ..

about the NAT , i sometimes got a NAT 2 and sometimes 3 , i really dont know how .. and last nite , strangely ,

i manage to create a MGOnline room !!

havent try to create shooting game room..
but i usually can create a private session on GRID game..
but just me and two of my fren..
so, does this mean i can create a room also..

haha, about the dns, youtube help me..
but i really want to get NAT 2 using broadband without router and just using modem..

susah lah nat 3...

yup....guess only using router can help....

any digi broadband user?

guys, i dont understand what is cross cable la

me too .. dunno whats difference between lan cable and cross cable .. but anyway just go to computer shop and asks the seller you want a cross cable .. i did that way ..

This post has been edited by watever77: Sep 14 2009, 08:56 AM

if i'm not mistaken, lan cable is to use from router to pc...
cross cable is like pc to ps3..means more like sharing internet connection..

i tried using cross cable but ps3 cant detect ip address..help anyone?

does ur Internet Connection already set up as shared connection?

yeah. Problem solved. Thanks

what nat type u get?

type 2. I using wimax wifi modem D230
