Im pretty sure when PlayStation bans (not suspends) they block your mac ip address wich is hard wired and cant really be changed its pretty much set by the company making the network cards. So that means the only way to change your ip addresses would be to change your mac network card. which you can buy for a pretty fair price on ebay, My question is do you have to put they exact model card in or would it not matter?
Also don't close this thread this is helpful for all the people that might get banned in the future.Smile
I might make a video on youtube on how to change it if i get requests.

Yes, in that case it is permanent if the OP isn't lying, but still all the same none of your ways of 'How to unban yourself' work, mac address isn't on the network card, and you can't change network cards, etc cbf going over all this again, they don't work dude!

There is also the possibility you can spoof your MAC address but in reality the MAC address does not get seen by anything past the router.

Sony would have anticipated this and taken the liberty to ban your console ID, also referred to as the PSID. The PSID is essentially your consoles hidden serial number that is authenticated against the server via an encrypted connection when you sign in to PSN."

Copy and paste from Playstation forum. If it is true that they ban your console ID then your screwed.

It's not true... I've been mac banned on a PS3 game called metal gear online(3rd party developer not sony) , you could swap between wireless and wired and it would still have you as banned... ask ogbrandon who posted in this thread, he would know about it, only way to get around it was to buy a new ps3.

So they pretty much brick your console just like Microshit. Wow that would suck.

COLE WORLD!
Well if you didn't want to be flamed you shouldn't have made a misleading title... your title sways people into thinking "You have the answer to not being banned". That's not a question last time i checked...

How about you put [THEORY] in your title, to prevent flame posts...?
