So you basically said that if it can't resolve the hostname or connect to the ip, it uses the ip. Not much sense LOL
No, I'm saying lots of firewalls block the URL, so if google.com won't connect because it's blocked, it will connect if you type in "74.125.226.146" as that's google's IP (This only works with certain methods, however if you block the URL that the PS3 uses to upload logs and stuff, it tries the IP alone instead
