| Chark said: Hmm, I think I have a Netgear but I'll have to take it back from my father, I don't think he uses it. It might work but I have AT&T Uverse and that uses its own router modem combo thing. Maybe the problem will stop when I add a secondary router to the mix but I'm not sure I can access my internet without the Uverse thing so I can't experiment with the router alone so I could be screwed. In the Remote Play settings there is a Remote Start option, it lists only to select on or off but when you select on it opens up a secondary menu with the option to check a box to allow for remote start via the internet. Try turning that on and turn your PS3 off. If it doesn't turn back on in the next minute it should be good (though occassionally it could turn on, some routers are slower with that signal). If that works you can use Remote Play from any internet connection, just make sure to turn your PS3 off with your Vita/PSP otherwise the automatic shutdown on the PS3 will disable the via the internet option and you'll have to head back home to turn it back on. There are some other steps one might have to do that includes adjusting the settings in your router to port forward, but that's a little too complicated to explain off the top of my head. I spent way too much time back and forth to Starbucks not to get this to work properly. |
Something else that may be part of the problem: I have my PS3 set up to automatically log in with my daughter's PSN ID. If I don't do that, she'll log in as me and really screw up my saved games (wish there was a password option). On the remote play settings, it asks for the email address I set up for her but the Vita asks for the email address I have set up for me.
I'm going to tinker with it a little later to see if I can figure this thing out. I don't use it very often but I'd like to know it works perfectly.
