    1. On the XMB go to Network Settings

    2. Next go to Internet Connection Settings

    3. Choose Wireless

    4. Choose Enter Manually in WLAN Settings

    5. Enter your SSID (your wireless network name)
    If you have internet security, enter it after this.

    6. Under Address Settings, choose Custom

    7. Under IP Address Settings, choose Manual

    8. Input your information (exactly as shown):
    IP Address: 192.168.0.105 (enter your own IP)
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Default Router: 192.168.0.1 (if you know your router already, use that number)
    Primary DNS: 4.2.2.2 (it is important that you use these numbers)
    Secondary DNS: 4.2.2.3

    9. Continue on to MTU and choose Automatic

    10. Continue on to Proxy Server and choose Do Not Use

    11. Continue on to UPnP and choose Enabled

    12. Click X to save your settings

    13. Test your connection and see if this helped or not


    If that doesn't work then try this:

    1) Change your DNS settings to the OpenDNS servers: 208.67.222.222 and leave your PS3 settings on automatic/easy (probably what you already had it set as before).
    2) Locate the IP address of your router. For example’s sake, mine is a D-Link DI-604 with IP 192.168.0.1
    3) Open a web browser (Firefox or Internet Explorer for example) on a computer connected to your router (The PS3’s browser might also work but I didn’t try that).
    4) In the address bar, type in the IP address of you router.
    5) If it asks for a username and password, enter whatever you set it as. If you never set one, check the manual with your router and it will probably give the default username and password. If you can’t find one, try username “admin” with no password.
    6) Once you get in, look for the setting to enter "DNS Primary and Secondary." (under “WAN.”) Once you find it, enter the values above for DNS (208.67.222.222 primary and 208.67.220.220 secondary). Make sure to apply the changes.
    7) Check the connection on your PS3 and hope that it is working.

    4. WLan Security Setting - Choose None
    5. IP Address - Choose Automatic

    7. DNS - Choose manually,
    Use these numbers

    8. MTU - Choose Automatic

    I finally got my PS3 to connect to the internet using the built-in airport card. Here is what I did.

    Turn on Internet Sharing. If you don't know how to do that then ask me and I will walk you through that as well.
    Open Terminal and type this exactly as shown:

    cp /etc/bootpd.plist /tmp/bootpd.plist

    Hit the Return key. It may seem as though nothing has happened. That's okay.

    Turn Internet Sharing off.

    Go back to the Terminal window and type:

    open -e /tmp/bootpd.plist

    Hit the Return key. A file will open in TextEdit. Locate this section of the file, near the end:

    <key>reply_threshold_seconds</key>
    <integer>4</integer>

    Change 4 to 0 and then hit Command+S to save the file.

    Go back to the Terminal Window and type:

    sudo cp /tmp/bootpd.plist /etc

    You will need to know the administrator password. If you do not have one set up, then you might need to set one up first. You will be warned that this could be dangerous. I don't know what any of this is doing, but it worked. So if it messed up my computer, I can't tell because everything seems to be working perfectly.

    Okay. After you enter the password, hit the Return key.

    Turn Internet Sharing back on.

    Now. Go over to your PS3 and set up a wireless connection the "easy" way. It said it was checking some network configurations or something like that and then it brought me to the SSID screen. I chose Manual and selected my access point that was already in there from before and then typed in my WEP password. Then I moved on and let it do everything automatically and it worked! Try it out. Let me know if this helps or if I need to clarify something that didn't make sense.

    I have had this problem a few times with my D-link
    so far what has worked for me is set up everything as usual (on easy)in
    internet connection settings but when you get to test connection press O
    and go back, this leaves all settings on automatic, and then I go to sign in and it cures DNS error.

    Hope it works for a few of you too :)
