Hi

I recently bought a PS3 console. When trying to connect wireless internet, i am getting Error: 80130186
But when I connect ethernet cable, the internet works fine
I got ADSL Line, with telstraclear. My laptop is connected wireless for internet and it works fine
PS3 is detecting the wireless signal in full 100% strength
I am entering the right WPA2 password and then testing the internet , gets the error message

Could someone help me with the settings, please?

Regards

Antony

Presumably you have tried rebooting your router and then starting the PS3 (with no cable)

I know this doesn't help but I find the PS3 wireless quite flaky and slow, wired works great though.

Even connecting to my PC to play videos over wireless wasn't reliable. The bandwidth was plenty, it just wasn't reliable. Wired made it really good.

You don't have MAC filtering on on your router or anything silly like that do you? If not, maybe try and turn it on and put all your machines into the filter and the PS3 too and see if it works then.

I think you have solved my issue
I do remember activating the MAC filter on the Router
I shall remove it and check tonight

Thanks you very much
