    Do you have permission? If not, maybe they have blocked you.

    dont think they have blocked me its still a wep key the ps3 is asking for and i used it no prob for the last 4 wks i think the router needs to b reset but i cant do that obviously anybody got any other ideas

    Get your own internet connection ya moocher


    But seriously I'd say they just found that you were using it and changed the WEP key

    no i know for a fact they havent changed the wep key and even if they did i have all 4 wep keys for this certain connection i reckon is a ps3 prob i read somewher that if u fully restore the ps3 that it will clear an possible dns bugs in the system but that will be a very last resort. so anyone else got any suggestions?

    not being smart mate but its not your connection. If they have given you permission then maybe hardwire to the router and try it that way to see if you still have an error. could be an issue with their broadband, if it doesnt work, chances are they blocked you

    Even if you have the wep key, they can still block you. Also, if they have noticed that someone is stealing their broadband, and they have blocked your MAC address, and they decide to get the law involved, you could have bigger problems.

    I'm not letting you facilitate the illegal stealing of your neighbours internet.

    How about you buy some of your own? It's not that expensive.
