broke my ethernet plug, can it be repaired

i had my wiredconnectionfor my ps3 but one of my speaker fell on the ethernet cord and yanked it out and now all the wires itsupposeto connect to are allmangledup and i can even plug it in. i was realy pissed of at first then remembered that you can go wireless. but now my i lag so much on mgo but before it was perfect it makes me not even wanna play. so im asking if i can get that repaired cos by the look of the ps3 i dont get how you can even open it up.

I really don't understand the problem. It sounds more like the cable was damaged from the way you describe it. Anyways, if the actual ethernet port itself is damaged, I'm sure the only sure fire way to get it fixed would be via Sony.

sounds like you damaged the cord. did it just fall on it? or did it fall on it and pull it out of the rj-45 jack? if it pulled out it could have either damaged the male or female end, so either way i would reccomend just trying a different cord to know if its the cable or your ps3

no its not the cord i still use that cord for my computer. its the part where you plug it in. if you take a close look at that part you will see a row of thin metal strips that the ethernet cable touches when you plug it in. when the cord was ripped out it pulled some ofthosestrips and now they cross over each other and and all mangled up. you know what i mean?

You have my sympathies.

I don't think you have much of a choice but to call Sony. Then again, if you're out of warrenty it'll be kind of stupid paying $150 just to fix an ethernet port:?
