Basically I was hoping some computer whizz will help me out. My mate was telling me earlier how a mate of his told him how to bypass the security (that blocks anyone on the university network from playing online) so that he could connect to XBL. He said it was complicated though. Now I know he'll never get around to coming over and showing me. So does anyone know how he would have done it?

Essentially the gaming society would take your MAC address and sign you up for it or whatever. But I really dont want to have to pay for their registration fees because Im skint (being a student and all). Obviously it cant be that hard if its been done by a guy who doesnt know that much about computers.

Can anyone help me out? Oh and Im on PS3 obviously.

Cheers,

the ps3 uses a authentication code to communicate with the server only newer fws have this and can only connect to psn using it so answer summed up for you your mates full of shit

Ok so what, I have to jailbreak to do it?
And hey, there no need for that... I said he connected to Xbox Live, not the PSN...

sorry my bad i read your post wrong but still what your asking you cant knock ppl off a network and only allow one person to be on the internet say at a school if you did im pretty sure you wouldn't be going to that school for very much longer

He didnt knock someone off a network. You cant even take your Xbox to school.... we're in University halls. If you change your MAC address and all your other details to the same as your laptop then the network thinks that your Xbox is your laptop. Thats what I heard anyway. But seeing as you cant change the MAC address of your ps3, doesnt look like its possible. Never mind...

you can change mac address on your ps3 either by hardware or homebrew on cfw

Yeah thats what I figured. But Im not really skilled enough to try and jailbreak my PS3. Cheers for clearing it up anyway.
