Wolf, you should be able to go automatic with just about all of the settings. Give that a try and, if it doesn't quite work out, you can go back in and change some settings manually.

Ok, time to do some tweaking. Are you sharing your connection via a router or doing a direct connection to the modem?

There is where your problem likely is. Unplug the modem's power for about 10 seconds or so and then plug it in again. If you switched the cable aound with it still on your ISP still thinks the IP address your computer was given is still in use. By doing this you will free up the IP and it can be assigned to your PS3.

Head over to the Network section of the PS3's menu and you will see an icon saying "Sign Up for the PlayStation Network". That is where to get your self going for some PS3 online play.
