So, I'm trying to hook up my 20GB launch PS3 (no wifi) to get online via my laptop and a cross-over cable but it won't work for anything. Has anyone had success doing this? I have:
-Windows Vista (ugh)
-Wireless connection has been marked as sharing internet (allowing other users to get online via this connection)
-a cross-over ethernet cable
Nothing I do seems to get it to work. I tried just letting auto-settings do it, no dice. I assigned a static IP to my laptop through my router, didn't matter. Manually set all the IP settings on the PS3 from the router, nothing. I know it's possible, but so far nothing I do works. Help!
Also, I don't have access to the router directly. I'm splitting the internet with my neighbors and the router is in their apartment below mine. So, game bridges, an extra-long ethernet cable, etc none of it is an option... short of upgrading to another PS3 model, I have no other options.
