PS3 help

#1 Post by Yorke »

Not for me.

My friend is trying to hook up his PS3 to the internet (hardwire) through his cell phone. He has a Verizon Blackberry which he can use to get internet on his laptop but he keeps getting a DNS error when he goes to connect on PS3. Is there something he needs to do to make it work?

I'm no internet pro, but I didn't even know you could connect via cellphone. Maybe he need to find out what the DNS is for his phone.

Like configure a DNS Server?

(btw. you know that mobile connections usually have a horrible round trip delay, right?)

Like anything that's going to make it work.

Also the internet he has is better than no internet at all. Yes, I told him it will probably suck speed-wise.

Of course he'd have to pay for monthly fees, which sucks. I said this was a PS3, not 360.
