    Is there a guide for it on www.portforward.com? Is there an advanced mode you can enter on the router config page?

    Use this, the ports are the same. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/ZyXEL/P-660HW-T1v3_eircom/PlayStation_Network.htm

    Skip down to the following section:
    Forward Ports 80 on the ZyXEL P-660HW-T1v3_eircom

    We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to forward the ports you need to forward. PlayStation Network requires you to forward the 80,443,465,983,3478-3479,3658,5223,10070-10080 ports.



    On your routers home page, go to

    NETWORK SETTINGS - NAT - PORT FORWARDING - Click add to add a new rule and copy the settings from the link posted above.. You will need to add a new rule for each port i believe. I do not have a PS3 so i cannot test this. And as you have done put your Firewall on Low. Or turn it off and see if you connect if not then turn it back on obviously...
