Introduction :

I Have been asked by many players if i could help them with their NAT type and i will also show you how to improve your connection,this is the way i fixed my NAT

What you'll need



  1. PS3
  2. ROUTER
  3. WINDOWS (If you know your default getaway then you don't need Windows)


Steps


On PC (Windows)


1. Click on start You must login or register to view this content.

2. (Windows Vista/7) Search for " CMD " You must login or register to view this content.
(Windows XP ) Open " RUN " then type " CMD " in the empty box and hit enter.

3. A Black box should appear, in it type " ipconfig /all" You must login or register to view this content.

4. Wright down your Default Gateway You must login or register to view this content.

On PS3 (Windows)


1. On your PS3 go to Internet Connection Settings

2. Continue with your configuration and when you find the I.P Address Option,hit Manual

3. Here comes the hard part.

In the I.P ADDRESS type in your default gateway, but the last number change it


For example :


Originally posted by another user
Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1
I.P Address : 192.168.1.42


NOTE : You'll need to remember it![/SIZE]

In the Subnet Mask enter :

Originally posted by another user
255.255.255.0


Default Gateway is the number you wrought down earlier.

Primary DNS Server is the Default Gateway.
Secondary DNS Server isn't needed.

4. After doing all this continue till you find the UPnP Option , enable it.

5. Run a test and everything should work fine,if it doesn't , tell me the error you receive in the comment.



On PC


1. Now open your Internet Browser and in the URL type in your Default Gateway.

2. (For this step you'll either need to be wired OR need to be close to your router if your use wireless)
Now it should ask you for a login (
You must login or register to view this content. )
If you don't know yours, here's a list of default logins for routers ( You must login or register to view this content. )

3. Now look for something called " DMZ "
(
You must login or register to view this content. )
It may be in a Firewall section.

4. Now when you find it type in your PS3 I.P Address you noted down earlier.

5. Save/Apply it

6. Now search for UPnP Option. (
You must login or register to view this content. )
Enable it.

7. Save/Apply it

8. Turn Off and Leave your PS3 and Router for about 10 mins.

9. Turn them back on and play!


Conclusion

I Hope this helped you, if you need any help leave a comment with your problem.

Hi, nice guide, was wondering if you could help me, I have some weird router which has a really weird menu and I get stuck at the DMZ bit. I click on DMZ and I get the top part of this image, cant really do anything there apart from click LAN Clients which brings me to the bottom of the image, what and where do I type something in?

put your PS3 I.P in the source IP Address

use the NAT and UPnP Options, i'm sure you have DMZ, look around your router's homepage
