Sorry if I don't guess acronyms here but I'd see if the router has firewalls and drop such to the ps3.

I have a MBP and a PS3. I conected then via ethernet cable, opened up sharing internet on the MBP and allowed sharing from air port to built in airport, turned of firewall and allowed file sharing. I am having trouble setting up the network settings on the PS3. I keep timing out when i test the conection. I dont think i am setting it up right auto set up is not working. I dont know what to type in for manual. anyone have any ideas?
