what ports does the ps3 need

Hey everyone

looking around i found i have to forward some ports on the BT Home Hub 2 page

these are the ports i need to put in:

• 80
• 443
• 5223

• 3478
• 3479
• 3658

but there is a problem

this tells me the numbers and that it is TCP and UDP

but i need to know these things for each one

what is the:

Protocol

port range

translate to

triger protocol

trigger port

i have done it like this and this HAS NOT WORKED

so i need to know what parts i have entered wrong

it all looks right to me but it does not work, i also tried keeping all thetrigger protocols as TCP and UPD but no luck

what have i done wrong

anyone?

i really wanna play crysis 2 tonight

I'm confused. Plug your PS3 into your modem and rock on.

Some of the local computer businesses can actually make them for you, but small computer stores seem nonexistant anymore.

is this the right cable?

Am I the only one who initially thought he meant game ports from other consoles? CattailCat

you would have had to read some of my other posts to get that i was having trouble with port forwarding

but now i have got 0 problems and have ordered my ethernet cable ( strangley exciting)
