I am connecting it up tomorrow, just wonderd what I might need to do. i have an xb360 and used to use a PS2 online, which sorted itself for themselves just as any other pc. i don't think you will have any issues as port forwarding tend's to be for remote access to a target pc. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

breff Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I think you'll find its 'plug and play', if anything turn on UPnP in your router. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperMK2 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 http://www.portforward.com/guides.htm As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless, uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason123 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 No port forwarding required, thats usually when speeding up torrents. Installed PS3, just follow online prompts, some games need an online upgrade before the online capability kicks in. You will only have to type in your wep key from your router.

GDC Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 PS3 and XBOX360 are plug and play very easy to set up only had problem setting up my Nintendo Wii on a BT Home Hub, ended up switching the router channel to 11 from 1 to stop it disconnecting on me.
