Hi, it would be marvelous to sit back and play challenges online with my new PS3 console :D
Although ... with help from my ISP (AOL) with the connection details i need it still doesn't work! When going through the settings manually the console recognises my IP address but not the DNS. When contacting AOL with the info they gave me i'm only given one DNS code or (DNS Server) from my comp? Which could be why its not connecting?
When trying automatic for the console to recognise the server itself, neither options IP or DNS work but misrably fail.
I've read on reviews i may need to change my firewall settings, but i think the DNS needs to be correct first from what the PS3 Internet Connections Settings say.
Any help would be much appreciated, i will work for food !
I`m having the same problem. Very frustrating :(
Try this
So what I found out was to put in the IP address you find in
ipconfig/all but add one to the last octive. Example if yours is
172.16.1.25... then in your ps3 type in 172.16.1.26
Then I was using the primary and secondary DNS numbers that my computer
was giving me in ipconfig/all. Do not use those. For your primary DNS
number use the number for your default which should be a right below
your subnet mask number. For the secondary DNS number just leave it
blank. 0.0.0.0
Then you have to upgrade to version 1.50 (which just came out yesterday
actually). Get a memory stick with at least 100mb space on it. Make a
new folder that is names PS3. Inside that folder make another new one
that is called UPDATE. Both must be in capitol letters. Then go to
PlayStation.com - PLAYSTATION®3 - Network - updates and click on
"download now"... Then click save and save it to your memory stick in
the UPDATE file, which should be in your PS3 file.
Then after all is done... plug that into your ps3 in one of the USB
ports for the controllers. In the main screen go to SETTINGS and then
go to SYSTEM UPDATE. Go to UPDATE VIA STORAGE MEDIA. PS3 will search
for your media stick and it should say on the screen The latest update
data was found... Version 1.50. Click OK and follow the rest of the
instructions. After it is completely done... go back to the internet
connection setup and go through all the menus to make sure all your
numbers are the same as I stated above. Then at the end run the
connection test. It should work!
I have the same shitty problem the only reason i got ps3 was for free live and now it doesnt work, it only takes the IP adress, and not the Primary or SEcondary DNS
SOURCE: PS3 says DNS error (80710102) when i try to connect to the internet with a wired connection
for mine i tried other fixes and they didn't work. Turns our my router had enabled security but the PS3 had forgotten the password (WEP key).
I turned off the WEP on my router and the PS3 suddenly found its connection.
To say I was getting stressed is an understatement, Sony should put something on their website, it seems like a really commonm problem to which people have no clear route to solution.

Goto the command prompt bar in the start menu type ' cmd ' then click o.k . A black dos screen will appear type in ' ipconfig/all ' and it will the the two servers you need under dns servers but if your doing a wired connection to your ps3 then you need to manually configure your dns on the custom method of setting up your internet connection on your ps3 as if this is auto config that will give you a dns error. Hope that helps ,I can go into more detail and guide you through it if need to .
