i am using easytether from my android 4g with unlimited data plan grandfathered in. i usb tether and ethrenet from my modem to my ps3.using windows 7 i could not get the NAT type on the ps3 to go to NAT 2 or NAT 1 so i downloaded Ubuntu 13.10 and messed with the interface a little bit. now i use static Ip address on the ps3 to change the NAT type and i can now i can obtain the IP address but with internet connection revieve a DNS error. ive messed with it for hours and hours and cant solve it myself. any solutions????

this is what i have under etc/network/interfaces

Hi, sorry I don't have much help here but makes me think of Rygel what connects my Linux to ps3.

1 members found this post helpful.

are you running ubuntu on the ps3 or another pc ?

maybe this will help:

edit:
what dns error are you getting.
what is in your /etc/resolv.conf file.

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.1.1


DNS ERROR 80710102

And im not sure how rygel works

im new to linux so just im learning as i go

this is my /etc/resolv.conf:which points to my wifi router. yours is pointing to itself. not sure what the correct way to edit it is (since it is warning you about editing the file).

i would try changing it to open-dns (208.67.222.222) and see how long it works before it changes back.

Just below nameserver?
i need to enter a primary and secondary DNS on the ps3

/etc/resolv.conf: changeto

still the same error, and i restarted ps3 and eth0 with the nameserver staying at 208.67.222.222, with that entered as primary DNS and 208.67.220.220 as secondary, nothing

where are you seeing:. from firefox ?

no on the PS3 internet connection test

ok. confused. i thought you installed ubuntu onto the ps3 but that seems not to be the case. it seems you have another pc that you are trying to use as a bridge for the ps3 to access the internet.

how is the ubuntu pc able to access the internet. please show the output of to prove the ubuntu machine is able to access the internet. obviousely if the ubuntu bridge is out then the ps3 wont be able to cross it.
