Hi Guys,
I haven't been on here for a while and I'm not sure if this post is in the right section, if not please redirect me, otherwise can you please help me out. Recently I purchased a new Belkin N600 DB N+ Modem/Router and have been having problems regarding connecting my PS3 to it. I connect it through wireless and have set up a static IP Address for it through the DMZ setting in the router. it works and i can play online with it but on all games i play, it says i have restrictive Internet (NAT Type:Strict). When i complete an internet test in network settings it says: IP address: Successful Internet Connection: Successful Playstation Network Successful UPnP: Unavailable???????????????? NAT Type: Type 2 The UPnP setting is what i believe is wrong but i don't know how to fix it. I have gone through the router settings and it is Enabled and i dont know what to do. Before i purchased the new router, the playstation would work fine and connect to everything easily but unfortunately that old router i was using died. Could you please help me as i am very confused with the UPnP setting and i wonder if its the problem. Thanks in advance.

UPnP is considered to be: "Universal Plug and Play".
My guess is when you try to connect to the Internet with the PS3, it is saying that the UPnP isn't available? There is a possibility that your router doesn't support UPnP. What you would have to do is access your router and configure it to allow the IP Address for the PS3 to open and close ports as they need to

I'm sure my router supports UPnP as it is located in router settings.
And I have configured my ps3 settings so that it only runs on one ip address every time I turn it on. (also known as static ip address) Here's a link to the description of my router: http://www.belkin.com/au/IWCatProduc...duct_Id=552270 Thanks

Have you tried it on ethernet?
Also try disabling upnp seeing as you are in dmz. Last edited by creative; 12-09-2012 at 12:56 AM. |
