Dlink DSL-2640B Xbox Live and PSN working together

Details

Written by Administrator

We love the Dlink DSL-2640 (B or R) routers and it is our Wireless G router of choice for ADSL customers. And whilst it does work great with two or more Xboxes with an Open NAT you may find that if you also have a PS3 (greedy!) you may have problems getting the PS3 to work with PSN all at the same time.

Even though we are not set-up to help with PSN we don't mind sharing the workaround with you so here it goes.

• Ensure your DSL-2640B is running a good version of firmware that supports two or more Xboxes like Firmware Version: EU_4.00 which you can download from our own site in our router firmware download section
• Set your Xbox IP addresses to auto
• Ensure UPnP is enabled on the router under Advanced/Advanced LAN
• Click on Advanced/Application rules and set-up the PSN rules as per the screenshot below
• Save the settings and reboot your router Xbox(es) and PS3 and then try to connect on both systems
