Try shutting down your router or modem for a few minutes. Turn it back on and try again. If it still doesn't work, then your router or modem may be outdated.

Obtain ip address failed !!!! what is ip address ??

Hi,


IP means internet protocol.

Try turning off your modem and router for a couple of minutes and then turn them back on again and go into the settings menu and reset you internet network settings, see if that helps.

PS3 (80GB) Obtain IP Address : Failed, Help?

Try swapping the ends of the ethernet cable between your PS3 and the router. Otherwise, try a different ethernet cable. Also check that there are lights on by your ethernet port on the PS3 and the router.

Internet connection failed but IP address obtained.

sounds to me like you have the security turned on . Just type in your security key on PS3 and it should connect. Best of luck!

Ip address wont work on ps3 anymore

It is likely your internet connection is not working properly.

Unplug your modem, router, PC, and power down your PS3.

Plug in your Modem.
Wait for it to run it's full diagnostics.

Plug in your router and let it do the same.

Power on your computer and let it obtain an IP address.

Then re-try your PS3.

Connecting to the Internet

Turn off the PS3, unplug the power to the cable modem, let them sit 5 mins. Plug in the power to the cable modem ONLY, wait for all lights to be on steady except for the activity light Then turn on the PS3 and check the network IP addy.
