Ironic really because me and another plusnet user itfcdan have played a few game together with no issues but when I play my mate on his sky broadband he is a bit laggy.

There have been some ping issues recently but aparently they are on the way to being sorted out.

I found that Fifa was unplayable on the PS3 using PN unlimited, I have Pro traffic managment and no problems now.

Hi m8, good games too hey!

The only probs i had were the disconnection issue which has now been patched , last weekend pings were abit higher than normal for plusnet but that seems to be resolved now.

OP have you put your ps3 ito DMZ if not then do it, opens all ports  Smiley

wired, wireless its the same. what dmz'ing does is basically switch the firewall off on the router for that ceratian local ip adddress.

thoe on the PN suppiled thomson, the thomson guys have complicated the system by having to the assign the wan ip to your devices instead and when i tried this here it knocked the net off for every devices on the local network including the xbox that had the public ip address.

if you have the thomson i belive this option is on the game sharing page at the bottom called assigen wan ip to devices or public ip. if its not on the game sharing page its defo some where at the bottom of one of the pages

netgears handle dmz'ing beautifuly. you just enter the lan ip you want and thats it

Yeah I'd go along with Asbo, the PN Thomsons don't appear great for no uPnP gaming - very easy to put my PS3 in the DMZ on my netgear.

Not exactly.. DMZ you effectivley place your bit of kit outside the routers firewall etc so all ports are exposed to incoming connections and there are no restrictions. Port forwarding is handled by the NAT router and any call to that port will be forwarded always so if you have 2 applications on different boxes using the same ports for incoming connections you could be screwed.

I think.

sounds logical adiewoo ( i suppose you have to know more about ports when owning a ps3  Smiley )

doh think asbo think   Smiley

yes the thompson does allow ethernet ip's to be placed on the public ip, i should know i did it my self. just hope you get it to work on your network unlike mine. my xbox got the public ip but it was a no go but i didnt try to solve why i had no internet.

so yes you need the ps3 switched on and connected to place in the dmz

Went home, stuck my ps3 in DMZ, lost ALL connection to internet.

Had to do a hard reset on my router.

AWESOME!  Angry
