Can't Connect To PSN While In Ireland?!

Robdude · 2011-10-24 20:23:29

I've got a PS3 I purchased in the US and everything was fine. But, now that I'm in Ireland, I can't seem to connect to the PSN at all. I can connect to my wireless network and I can even surf the web. I've updated the system too and that worked; but I can't seem to connect to the PSN. Any ideas what is going on?

could be a number of reasons.
Are you using openDNS? Maybe your public IP is registered and blocking gaming sites.

PSN requires ports 3074/3075 to connect to. You might need to port forward these on your router, or enable upnp.

FWIW - I connect to US PSN all the time with no issues.
