kittoo Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I think you will need to reboot your modem. Some modems get locked to the MAC address of the device they're on and do not work on any other MAC address. My friend had one stupid cable internet connection where he did not even have a modem. He tried using net on PS3 for two days but it always gave same error like you. Then he called the company guys and they told him that the MAC address was locked into the company router or something.

kittoo Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Since the company guys wont do it again and again, getting a router will be better idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dredd Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 thanks all for the replies. after posting the problem that day, I logged into my account on youtele.com the MAC address locking thing is correct. there was an option "dual MAC update" in my account options. i saw that there was 1 MAC registered there - and it was my laptop MAC. but there was an option to add 'new' MAC. so i also added (registered) my PS3 MAC on the site. and it worked. hv been playing uc2 online ever since. :-) but now i also need to check my laptop. havent connected the laptop to internet after that. will check whether in course of adding the ps3 MAC, the laptop MAC shouldnt be made inactive (i doubt that, but will have to check it.) but its good that youtele has a dual MAC update option.

Hmm best option is to get a wifi router and then get that mac registered with Youtele..you can do it on the website itself....then you can connect as amany devices as you like whenever you lilke..the only limitation being the resultant data transfer speeds...due to several machines being connected... BTW Do you have a situation with Youtele where your upload speed is always higher or equal to your download speed ?? I have had that problem for ever and youtele can't figure out what the problem is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had that problem for ever and youtele can't figure out what the problem is... i have youtele plan of 192kbps day and 1mbps night (10pm-8am) daytime reliability is more than nighttime. i put a complaint request. and they asked me to take screenshots of download speeds and report to them. am doing it right now. its good that i am at least able to play, but i get very pissed off at night when i see that the speed appears less than daytime speed. wonder what crap these guys are doing in background.
