Exclamation PS3 YDL 6 - Ethernet


Hey guys

Completely new to Linux. Installed YDL on my PS3. Everything seemed to be going well. Until I realised the connection in use was Wi Fi.

I removed it, as I'd rather have it wired, & now I cant get either to work.

Been searching online for hours. I only come accross Wi Fi tutorials, & a guide to "switching" Wi Fi to Wired, which doesnt help.

Every time I try these steps, written on the Terrasoft site (su -, rm e.c.t, e.c.t, novo e.c.t) I go back into the Network Settings area, the Wireless device is back again.

Wired Network runs fine in the PS3's XMB, always has before & still is. Along with the rest of my network, 2x PCs, PSP, Wii, a Laptop, 2x Xboxes.

Please help, this is driving me crazy.

You'll need to provide some specific information. What ethernet card do you have? Is the module for the card loaded? Is it configured?

If you want to disable the wireless card just blacklist it's module so it doesn't load.

Its a PS3's ethernet & wifi..
I dont know the specifics of them, but I do know everyone is asking for Wi Fi tutorials.
I need the opposite, just ethernet.
I read that running on the PS3, both wireless & ethernet cannot exist at the same time, and there are steps to switch from one to the other.
But this didnt help me.
