Sorry, I'm not with TalkTalk - I take a wired connection would be too much hassle?

Do any other wireless devices work with your TalkTalk router?

 

[Dmadman72]

will your PS3 find the router when you scan?

 

[roblfcx5]

Yes iPad mini & my phone work fine with router, and yes ps3 & ps4 find it wen scan but fail on the test

 

[roblfcx5]

Sounds like it could be a problem with the router? Any chance you can pick up a wireless router from somewhere like Maplins/Argos?

If it doesn't work, you're entitled to refund it within 7 days of purchase.. so you won't lose any money

set it up manually. might be conflicting ip addresses.

I have just ordered a wireless booster, not sure if it will do it though
Someone said to me I can use the booster to hardwire it,
See how that goes,
Thx guys.

How exactly do I set it up manually ?
I've never dne it before

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PYMJmf3SxM . Everything you need to know is in the first 8 1/2 minutes of the video. I did not have a secondary DNS. The only thing I did different was to set my MTU to manual and set it at 1500.

 

[roblfcx5]

Same here m8 only 1 DNS
Still not connecting even home plugs & WiFi booster just not happening,
Says IP succeeded
Internet succeeded
Psn failed
So confusing

 

[Dmadman72]

Is this a new brand new system or did you pick it up used?


Also just out of curiosity can you check and see if you can do a system update?

Is your PS4 connecting to PSN?

I just found out talk talk routers can have a gaming block feature on them. Have you opened up your router and checked that it is set correctly? 192.168.0.1 should get you into your router just in case you didn't know how

 

[roblfcx5]

I Bought it used m8, it connects to virgin with no problems, I dne a update on the virgin, it wouldnt do on talk talk
No won't sign in to psn
Error

I opened router up yesterday, not sure how to set it correctly, I just changed & tried few different channels.

Unplugged your modem, voip box and router(If you have) for a minute. How ever it comes in plug the first in the line in first. Meaning more then likely your modem. Plug it back in and wait until the lights stop flashing and move on to the next piece of equipment and repeat. Then once everything is hooked up cross your fingers, say a prayer and turn on your PS3. I have never been around a talk talk router so I have no idea how to help you with set up and all the videos on youtube are not precise enough for me to try and walk you through it. I will keep looking to see if I can find any more but I am running out of ideas.
