Ive been trying to get PSN to work but i cant. I originally hooked my cable to the router and it gave me a message saying, "an ethernet cable is not connected". I thought it might be my cable so i went out and bought another one but the message didn't stop appearing. Then i tried a differnt router but it still continued to happen. Ive been trying to figure this out for hours but it's no use. Any help would be appreciated.
I forgot to mention that when the ethernet cable is connected the message saying "an ethernet cable is not connected" constantly blinks. The router slot aswell keeps blinking instead of just staying still.

Yes, I would get failed connections but when it started to say successful it said i had to update my system but when i tried it wouldn't and i started to get failed connections again.

That sounds like a busted pin. Take a close look at the ethernet port on your PS3 and see if one of those 8 pins is missing, bent, or broken. If so, call support and see if you can get them to fix/replace it.

it must have something to do with the router. i recieved a new playstation 3 and it still has the same problem. i changed all the cables too but i still have this problem. i am using a D-link wireless router with 4 ports on the back and the playstation does not work in any of these ports.
