Sony PlayStation 3 to Web

[allgonepetetong]

Hi

Just taken delivery of my brand new Sony PS3 (well I won it actually). I've connected the ethernet port to my router but the screen on the PS3 shows no internet conection.

Do I have to dial up my ISP on my PC to be able to get it to connect or should it do it automatically? Will I have the same problem with my Slingbox?

many thanks

Pete

I'm guessing, It's obviously not Uk Spec so either Sony haven't got the PS3 Servers up yet, or because it is an import you never will get online

thanks guys, but I'm actually in Hong Kong and it's a Hong Kong machine.

I'm not up on this stuff and can't work out why it isn't able to connect automatically, am I doing something wrong?
