NAT type 3!!!

So, I recently got a PS3 and I have a nat setting type 3. so i went online and looked up ways to change it to type 2, but no matter what i do it stays at type 3, i have tried port forwarding and creating a DMZ, and neither worked, or maybe i did it wrong? i would much apreciate some help! :) thank you.

Here's my advice connect your PS3 by going wired internet then stop using wired this means unhooking your PS3 from wired connection then go back to wireless then your NAT type should be at least 1 or 2. I did it this way and it worked.

I did that yesterday and worked :), in any case if that doesnt work for you, I found a youtube tutorial

Ahh yes the mythic nat 2!!! it all depends on your modem first off. If you have DSL from at&t or one of it's many sister company's and have a motorolla 2210 silver modem that has four or 5 lights . Nothing will change your nat unless you bridge it, you have to put pppoe on your computer, and put all your info in to your router call your IP provider they can help you.

I JUST fixed this porblem.

You need to set up your DSL modem as a bridge, bridge mode. There is a guide for your model just search it out on google.

If you have more than 1 point of failure, such as a wireless router, you need to set that up as PPPoE.

If you have no others. Then you need ot set up your PS3 as PPPoE

This will switch you to NAT2. This fixed my problem for playing online for Brutal Legends with others.

Thanks for the tips, i think im going to have to bridge it
