Im having trouble connecting my ps3 to wireless to get online?

i have connected to the right connection, put the wep key in but when it comes to the test connection, the @playstaion network bit fails,

Ok if your PS3 is one of the older models then it may have been affected by a previously unkown error affecting millions of units as of press time.

Try not to force the issue as it may erase your trophies and game data. Older PS3s apparently re-set its time/date back to 1999 as a result of a bug/glitch in the firmware causing problems with synchronization as consequently, deletion of files, data and trophies. An update is in the works. Don’t worry for now ok.

  3. It’s not a virus or anything it’s Just the main ps3 server has crashed, hopefully there’s no overall data loss.
    in the mean time you are unfortunately unable to play online/offline games that contain trophies, if you attempt to your trophy data will corrupt and delete itself so best not to try until a patch update is released.
    time scale: this can’t be estimated guessed or otherwise, sony WILL try to fix it today as they have alot of top games coming out soon and know how much risk they’ll run if they fail to fix this problem.
    When the patch update is available, you can assure youself that the ps3 itself will inform you to go to software update and update your system.
    problems this error gives:
    inability to run games offline/online that have trophies
    inability to sign into netflix,Home, PSstore sign in, in general
    inability to sign in to playstation.com on pc or ps3
    clock will not set via internet (ps3 server)
    clock and date can be set manually however the time does not save so once you turn the system off, the time will be wrong once it’s back on again.

    things that do work:
    any non trophy or non-network based program ie. ps1/2 games
    you can still Access store from psps and media go
    majority if not all ps3 slims are not affected by this error.

    sony will be working around the clock to fix this, they have been on the job now for almost 10 hours, so please be patient in the mean time.

    NOTE: any trophy data lost or corrupt, will probably be restored when system is back online, dont go reformatting /rebuilding your hdd there is nothing wrong with it
