Not your connection but rather the security around it maybe? Check your NAT or DNS settings as others have mentioned. Modems/routers come with built in firewalls nowadays and require specific settings under certain circumstance. If all else fails place the PS3 in the DMZ 'Demilitarized Zone' iirc. Been a while since I had to fiddle with that stuff so correct me if I'm wrong.

 

And yes you might need special settings for just ONE game.

Ok so I'm on my PS3 right now...What is NAT and DNS Settings? I see here primary DNS but nothing aobut NAT

NAT, DNS and DMZ cannot be adjusted or modified from the PS3.  Those are settings you can change only through the router or modem itself.  Unless an IT professional setup your modem / router then what you should do is go on your home computer, open up a web browser and copy/paste 192.168.0.1 (this is how you access your modem for configuration)

Before we get to that point though, I want to ask - does your modem also serve as a router, or do you have a router connected to your modem which the PS3 passes through? 

 

Edit - I'll just PM you the info you need.
