Network issues with 1.92? Sony is aware and trying to fix it

We've received many, many complaints from PlayStation 3 owners who are complaining that after upgrading to firmware 1.92, they've been unable to connect to the PlayStation Network, the Store, or the Warhawk servers. The problem seems to happen immediately after the upgrade, but for some people (PS3 Fanboy writers included) the issue will crop up randomly days later.

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

I myself couldn't get in many websites and in the store, right after the upgrade. Tried to check on the notebooks and everything was alright.

But I "solved" it simple. Just go in another account, let it get into the PSN normally, then when you come back to any other account, everything is OK again... This have worked, not only for me but also for some friends, but I don't have any idea on why or how this works.

[CrimsonAngelic]

Cause this just happend to me 10 minutes ago muah ha

[LOFT316]

getting into the PS store and the Web browser so i Deleted the cookies and cache and everything is fine now

[SmokeyMcBear]

hmm interesting.. I remember another updated I was having this problem, random disconnects from the psn, connection contantly dropping, but that was a while ago. I made a static ip for the ps3, and it has been good ever since. Havent had the problems people are having right now, well ill cross my fingers.

[joevfx]

its been happenign to me since i first got my PS3 in december. they need to ugrade the wifi card firmware. it will alwasy randomly sign m eoff and not be able to see my wifi router even though my laptop can see it perfectly fine.

[SmokeyMcBear]

make a static ip for your ps3. Don't do the automatic connect thing. Manually put in an adress for the internet connection on your ps3, get the other information needed from your router and the computer. Do you have a linksys. I have one and had the same problems. But I put in a static ip for my ps3, and havent had any problems since, it also fixes the problems with the media servers. A quick fix is to turn the media sharing off in the network connections

The Warhawk servers are just as full as they were before 1.92.

The store loads just as well as it did before 1.92.

Webbrowsing works just as well as it did before 1.92.

That site is nothing but a joke site.

[snoop_dizzle]

well considering that many people including me have had issues i would take their word for it over yours.

Sh!t happens.

You get way too defensive bro.

Anyways i have had this issue recently, and i have been disconnected from the server a few times as well. Aside from that it works fairly well.

but it sounds like they are trying to fix it.

its funny stella you will discount ANYTHING negative about the PS3. I can understand some things becasue some people do try to throw negative stuff out for all the consoles, but come on dude.

[Torch]

But last night I had a Hell of a time trying to log into the Warhawk server (about an hour!!!)...and the trouble started IMMEDIATELY after my upgrade to 1.93.

Prior to that, the game had been running absolutely glitch-free...oh wait. Not true:

Despite my hours upon hours of ranked gameplay, every single one of my stats remain at zero.

Hopefully, I won't get the same login problem later tonight.

[Lord Anubis]

it works for me. after updating warhawk wouldn't connect but the store and the web browsers did. Someone here suggested a test connection and after I did that it worked and i was able to get in warhawk. May you guys should try it and report back.

[Premonition]

hopefully sony can fix this before the store gets updated tomorrow cause I know some people would like to try out the stranglehold demo and any other demo coming out that day.

[jcgamer]

For websites that are not responding....delete cookies, delete cache, and delete authenticity under tools or view, after you enter your browser. This will make your web pages run even smoother if you have been surfing alot. For the sign in problem...she said give Sony some time. They will fix any problems ASAP. The store is fine to me.

[CaliGamer]

However, I would rather not be able to connect randomly because of an update rather than having the update brick my system any day IMHO.

[uxo22]

Who said something about a system being bricked, there you go trying to start a flame war. Can't resist can you.

[snoop_dizzle]

so we should just ignore this problem?

in that case you just stooped to the level of your competition.

ignore it. at least for a while.

[CaliGamer]

I was just making a general statement that their could be worse things that this update could do to my PS3, I didn't go into specifics, but now that you mention it I guess it could be mistaken for something else. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings man, take it easy. ;-)

Edit @ Snoop:
While I am a fan of Sean Connery, I have to direct this response to you too buddy. I never said they should not address the problem, I was just stating I am glad it's not something worse. Other companies have had other complications with their updates and I am just glad that this is the most serious it has gotten for the PS3. Many people of this site just need to relax.

Edit @ Snoop again:
How sad, trying to begin a flamewar over an innocent comment. If I am so insecure then my post history would show me jumping to defend Sony at every turn, but as you can see I post much less than you do sir. But I don't expect you to understand that so you should probably go about your business of trying to come across as intelligent to the general reader on N4G.
Hahaha, get a life buddy, trying to make a point about nothing. I apologized to the first guy who responded to my comment, but you are just jumping on the bandwagon for more bubbles. How pathetic.

[snoop_dizzle]

the utter fact that you mentioned something off topic to justify this problem shows insecurity and being over defensive. Thats like the pot calling the kettle black.

Since its not such a big deal and i do agree (though it can at times be annoying), why do you even have to mention that then?

edit: maybe you meant nothing by it but i am still skeptical, though i definetly agree that people need to relax on this site.

people seem trigger happy on this site on all sides, and it seemed like you were one of them.

of course me responding to your comment might make it seem like i was being trigger happy and ironically i was responding to someone who was trigger happy.

_____________________________ ______________________________ _ _________

bandwagon for bubbles lol. Well could it just be possible that im normal and don't have any brand loyalty and i just enjoy playing games, adding to that i do have a life? Of course not!
statistically speaking thats impossible isn't it?

but hey if you don't believe me after that well ok then.

[xplosneer]

I can't connect to the Warhawk servers anymore, it says Processing Login then times out.

[Jdash24]

that keeps happening to me too, i really hope they fix it soon

[DJ]

even though I updated days ago. Calling customer service right now so that they can log how many people are having this problem.

[khellendros1]

I haven't had any trouble getting onto PSN or browsing the web. That's weird though.

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

I couldn't get on the web browser since last night, or the PS store. Figured something was up, maybe even thought my PS3 was broke. I need this damn thing working.

[spammy_nooo]

i just now gave up on online resistance and hit refresh on this site only to find this on the front page. hmm. i updated the other day and i've played twice today already, so this issue happened to me within the last 5 hours.

FIX IT!!!!

[sleepyk]

i have to restore my settings just so the internet would work

[DJ]

Open up the Web Browser, press Triangle to go to Tools, and delete your Internet Cache and Cookies. Warhawk suddenly logs in right away for me.

[yocdub]

This happened to me and deleting the cache & cookies works....LISTEN PEOPLE!!!!! Until 1.93 or God Forbid 2.0 releases this will cure the problem anyone is having with connecting to the web or store.

[kornbeaner]

I was just on last night without issue, maybe I'm one of the lucky ones.

[Lord Anubis]

it works for me. after updating warhawk wouldn't connect but the store and the web browsers did. Someone here suggested a test connection and after I did that it worked and i was able to get in warhawk. May you guys should try it and report back.

[pilotpistolpete]

Downloaded 1.92, and never experienced anything. I even got on a ranked server first try on Warhawk.

[RINGOFDEATH]

I just reseted my settings

[PimpHandHappy]

i have a small issue with getting into the store but it never takes more then a few trys.

[darkequitus]

Can no longer connect to the Warhawk server for love nor money. Not even to seen the game list. Oh well. Have to put my PS3 to bed until it is sorted out.

[sat609]

Since the upgrade I have found it very hard and most of the time impossible to log on. WarHawk being the biggest pain in the butt after the new firmware. I have also had a noticeable change in Rainbow 6 Vegas and GRAW2. They seem to take a bit longer to establish a connection as well. One other thing I would like to note is that I have been having trouble keeping my *NEW* bluetooth head set connected, it's the one that came with WH. Any how under the options I have no problems connecting the head set, but once I load a game the head set is no longer connected. This problem had me pretty Po'ed, but seem to go away after several reboots. Not sure if anyone else is experiencing the head set problem.

[achira]

sorry but for me the shop loads now faster, and the internet browser is faster too, there are no problems with this update.

[phate2k3]

not saying this is gunna help everyone but i was haveing pretty much all the same issues as you guys internet, ps store warhawk the lot i tried what was sugested above about doing a internet connection test and havent had any probs since its worth a trying hope it helps

[rev20]

just delete ya cookies cache history and auth in your browser so nothing remains, then play warhawk saves you the hassle of rebooting the console or doing the connection test over and over again,

All 3 methods work i just find deleting the temporary internet files quickest and easiest

[phate2k3]

i didnt have to do the connection test over and over again 1 test fine ever since

[lil bush]

im having trouble just singing on psn, cause as soon as i get on i keep getting psn newtwork error occured
