    If turning the firewall off allows you to connect then it looks like setting the firewall to 'low' and setting up the port forwarding with the PSN ports is the next thing to try.

    What... How... Why?
    Can i ask did you only deal with UPC on their freephone number on 1908 or did you have to call the premium line technical Helpdesk ?
    I am asking that as my PS3 seems fine but Chrome on my laptop keeps timing out and having DNS fits no matter what DNS I point it to.

    Great to hear your back online, I hope you have iulimited download allowance for that monster download mountain!!

    UPC have a Talk To forum(link below), they did a line test and found no issues.
    They put the order in for me yesterday evening and I got my new Ubee modem this afternoon.

    That's a different error to what we were experiencing.

    Go to the Talk to UPC forum and ask for your line to be tested.

    Check your uPNP settings on the router,
    My housemate had a similar issue with connecting to works servers & he tweeted @UPC to ask to enable our routers settings. Since then I've never had trouble accessing PSN or anything.
