The reason your browser will still work is because it doesn't require the playstation network to run, it only requires your internet connection to be working. The signing in requires a connection between your connection and sony's servers.

Error Code 80710A06??? Personally I think the network has been hacked. I don't believe any 'Routine maintenance' would take so long. PSN say the network could be down for a couple of days, so It'll be Saturday before we're all hopefully back online.
Hope this helps.

Hello,

The PlayStation Network is down at the moment. Sony Entertainment is working on this. The code is from the site not a physical error with your PS3. That code says - "80710A06 - An error occurred during the install operation (error when downloading game from PSN - network error occurred." The only way I have heard of to fix this is to reset the system to defaults. Go to the settings -> System Settings --> restore system defaults --> then restart your system. This will clear your code. HoweverThe PlayStation Network is down and this too can be in part the problem but the hard reset is what takes care of the issue when the PSN is running normally. I'd wait till the PSN comes back online before a hard reset.

This error can occur when the PlayStation Network is down, or when your router is not forwarding ports.

It does appear that the network is down, as stated here. However, you can still check to see if port forwarding is the issue.

To check if you are port forwarding, visit this site and select the router you are using.
http://portforward.com/
These are the ports needed to be forwarded:

-This may not be required if your router has an option called UPNP-

• TCP:
• • 80
  • 443
  • 5223
• UDP:
• • 3478
