PS3 wont connect to Playstation Network?

Question

Keep getting: 'The connection with PLAYSTATION Network timed out.'

Every now and then it will connect and i can access the online store, so i know the password is correct and all that. But recently it wont let me connect to the playstation network more than it will let me connect. It usualy seems to work during the daytime, but when it starts getting late at night (11pm onwards) i cant get on! Internet browser works fine, i can visit any website i wish.

Similar yahoo question resulted in the answer: Try disabling the media server under network settings on the PS3. Sometimes, routers see the media server as an outside program trying to access the network.

I tired this and it didnt work. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Chances are it's not your connection. It's probably just the playstation network having some sort of issue. I've had friends with this same problem, and it ended up being the playstation network.

If you believe it to be your connection, you can just reset your modem or router and try again.
