Hey, do you have other wireless devices on the network with your PS3 and router??

Id change the SSID on the router to something a little less complicated than belkin_pre-n_646760

Loose all the _ and - and go with something a little shorter and more descriptive. You can always initiate security later to lock it down.

I think you might be looking a little too deep in the configs, you only would need to enter a MAC address in the router as part of the wireless security if your not using WEP/WPA or radius.

I assume here that your computer is connecting either wirelessly or wired through the router? If so.

1) change the SSID of the router. (note if your connecting from your computer wirelessly you will have to change that one as well)

2) go to Settings on the PS3
3) Go to network settings
4) go to Internet connection Settings
5) if you perform blahblah just say yes
6) Choose wireless - > choose scan ->

you should see your routers wireless SSID now in the list with a signal percentage.. what do you get??

7) If all is well you should highlight your SSID and select X this populates the next screen with your SSID choose right again

8) If you have no security choose none, if you have security enabled id disable it on the router till you get it working then activate it once you know you can physically connect

9) take the easy route on the address settings

you should see then a screen:

int connection - enabled
connection - wireless
ssid - your ssid
security - none
address - automatic
ip - automatic

press X

Test the connection - what do you get?


If it passes the connection test and you still have problems. Check the IP information on the PS3 and repost.

Unless you have MAC filtering and security turned on on your router you shouldnt need to be entering MAC addresses to get IP reservations. If you didnt have to do that with your computer you should have to with the ps3.

cheers
