Is the PSN down?

[Synthesthesia]

I could connect fine last night but today I can't connect at all, and it's giving me this error code: (80710092).

I heard they were having problems yesterday, so I'm hoping this is at their end.

Seems fine for me. I've been logged-in for a few hours.

havn't been on meself today - as i was booted off my uk account yesterday with the message - The account has been suspended - please try later.. ??????? .. hopefully that was just a server cock up and not a cause from my end, and for what... I've no idea....

just fired it up and its back to normal service.. phewww

I've been on playing Wipeout all evening with no issues...

I was on LBP Beta from about 2-4 last night, no problems then just today.

Just done a internet connection test, gives me an IP but fails at internet connection. It's connected to my router- it says 100% strength, so that's not the problem.

I don't see what's changed from last night ?

Tried power-cycling your router?

[Synthesthesia]

Tried what? I've just assigned all of the UDP/TCP ports it's asked. I've also assigned it a static IP address, no change. Tried turning both off and on as well. No problems connecting anything else, 360, mac, wii etc.

Power Cycle = posh name for that.

uh, hmm.

I'm out of ideas but I'd try it wired just in case.

Just updated my firmware on my router- nope, still not working.

Just plugged a Ethernet cable in- nope not working.

Full status code is:

"The connection to the server timed out. (80710092)"

EDIT:

It's actually connecting to the internet fine- the web browser is working. Just not PSN

[kernow]

hmm, let me see if I can get on PSN a minute.

edit: Bizarre, its fine for me. hmm

it might be your ISP's DNS server not resolving a host, (apparently), try some different ones, and see if it works, also, disable auto-sign in and try signing in manually. I'd bet its the DNS issue though , this would be why it doesn't 'suddenly' work.

The guy there said it just worked again a couple of days later, so I'd definitely expect it to be an ISP/DNS problem. You could always do a manual configuration and specify a different DNS server to avoid changing it on your router.

Downloading a Firmware update for the PS3 atm to see if it's that. Doubt it though. I'll have a look at your suggestions.

It worked (opendns). It's now saying ive got NAT type 2.

Also seems to be downloading things a lot quicker.

Thanks! But how come the 360 etc work and this doesn't. Picky!

[kernow]

because the PSN host would be a different one to the 360 live hosts, and maybe your ISP's DNS server has a corrupt record for the PSN host (or something).

NAT2 is preferrable over NAT3 for gaming etc, so you should keep it like this for a while I guess.

NAT2 would probably be because of you opening the correct ports/forwarding them etc, not because of a DNS server change. hehe
