I got a playstation 3 about a week ago and I'm trying to get the media sharing to work with WMP 11. The problem I'm having is my computer cannot see the PS3, I can't ping it's network IP, but the other computers on my network can... I'm hardwired to my router and so are the others, I'm running vista x64 and the other computers are running x32, but I don't think that makes a difference.

I have two onboard LAN cards in my computer. One is a nvidia nforce that I use regularly, the second is a marvel yukon that has major problems if I have 4gb of ram installed.

Anyway, the marvel yukon works, it can ping my PS3 and share media. But since I like to use my computer's 4gb of ram, its not really an option, I have to get the nvidia nForce one working.

I don't know what I need to do to get the nvidia nforce one working. As far as internet, sharing files across other computers, it has zero problems with that. It can ping other computers but the PS3.

do you have the marvell yukon NIC disabled in the BIOS or in Windows? have you installed a recent driver from nvidia.com?

I have yukon disabled in windows right now. I don't think theres a bios option for it. I'm not sure if or the time I installed a driver for the nforce network controller. I do have a roll back option.

run the route print cmd on a machine that can ping the PS3 and route print on the machine that cannot. notice the differences or post the output here.

not what I was looking for

first, tell me the IP of the PS3, the IP of the computer that cannot reach it, and the IP of the computer that can.

are they all on the same subnet? same network number and same mask? are you using DHCP on all 3 or have you configured a static address on any of them? can you ping other devices on the local network from the computer that cannot ping the PS3?

as far as the route print cmd goes, i don't know if that will really help assuming you are using DHCP to assign addresses to all of them. if you aren't sure about the setup, then do the following:

on the computer that can ping the PS3 and the one that cannot

start, run, cmd, route print [Enter] (do not specify an IP after the route print cmd)

Thanks for helping. Here you go.

PS3 IP: 192.168.1.102

Broken computer IP: 192.168.1.101

Working computer IP: 192.168.1.105

I think they are all on the same subnet? Everything is set up automatically. Although, I configured the PS3 and broken computer to static IP's but that did nothing to help. So they are back to automatic. I can ping other computers from the broken computer.

when you installed the nvidia driver did you install the firewall software that comes with it?

no.

I just installed the nforce drivers, with them came a ethernet driver but that did not help at all. Made me re-activate vista.

    • Denmark ditching Windows and Office for Linux as it may not want to rely on Microsoft, Trump by Sayan Sen Back in November 2021, the German state of Schleswig-Holstein announced that it was planning to move away from closed-source Microsoft products like Office and Windows to LibreOffice. About two and a half years later, we received an update on the matter, as state officials confirmed that plans for the migration were still intact. As such, about 30,000 government sector computers would be switching by 2027 or so. Following Germany, Denmark seems to be looking to make such a move. This move should resonate pretty loudly now, given that Linux developers, including The Document Foundation, are pushing to encourage users to pick GNU instead of upgrading to Windows 11 from Windows 10. Caroline Stage Olsen, the current Minister for Digital Affairs of Denmark, told the Danish media outlet Politiken that there are plans to phase out Microsoft products in her own ministry next month, and more precisely, moving away from Office 365 to LibreOffice. When discussing the potential challenges of implementing such deployments, Olsen shared a clear backup plan that her ministry has: if the new system proves too challenging at first, they will temporarily revert to the previous setup while they explore other solutions, and overall she is pretty firm on her decision as she stated, "We won't get any closer to our goal if we don't start." The report adds that, thus far, the response from her team has been positive. The minister also added that this initiative isn’t solely about Microsoft. Instead, it’s a step toward reducing an over-reliance on just a handful of providers. The report mentions that the decision could be related to recent events surrounding the International Criminal Court (ICC). For context, the ICC's chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, lost access to his Microsoft Account following Trump's sanctions (via Associated Press). There is also the issue of Trump's keen interest in Greenland, which happens to be a semi-autonomous region of Denmark.
