Access PlayStation Network (PSN) on Jailbreak Firmware 3.55[How To]

A few days ago, Sony has released PlayStation 3 firmware 3.56 which blocks all kinds of jailbreak / homebrew available till now. All those who have Jailbroken their PS3 on Firmware 3.55 can’t access their PS3 Network (PSN). However, there seems to be a way to bypass this recent firmware update and access PlayStation Network as well as play online games without actually updating to 3.56 firmware. This way, you get to keep the jailbreak as well as have all the PSN fun.

This method is known as the “DNS trick” which is probably going to get patched soon. The steps are as follows.

Step 1: On your PlayStation 3, go to Settings > Network Settings.

Step 2: Select Internet Connection Settings and press OK.

Step 3: Choose Custom option. Then pick your connection method (wireless or wired) and follow onscreen instructions.

Step 4: Once you reach DNS setting, select Manual and enter the following:

Primary: 67.202.81.137

Secondary: 67.202.81.137

Step 5: Proceed further and save settings at the end

Step 6: Now test your connection. it may take time to sign in so be patient. You’ll see Succeeded in front of PlayStation Network during the test. Thats it! Sign-in and access all the PSN functions as well as play your favorite games online.

That’s it.

(*NOTE: It is advised to stay off PSN if you are running a jailbroken firmware 3.55 since Sony can easily detect it and ban you from PSN if they want!)

Mobile computing devices are increasingly replacing the regular PCs. While PCs still remain the mainstream mode of computing, the mobile platform has experienced an explosive growth in the recent years. And at the head of this growth is Apple, holding the largest market share in both the mobile PC and tablet market.

In April 2012, Nokia proudly announced that Lumia 610 would be able to run the Windows Phone version of Skype. Later on, Skype announced that it won’t support Skype for Windows Phone on devices with 256MB RAM. As Lumia 610 got only 256MB of RAM inside it, the future of Skype support in the handset was in jeopardy. According to reports, Nokia has officially pulled out Skype for Windows from Lumia 610 handsets because of unsatisfactory user experience.

Facebook and Google haven’t been on particularly good terms. The rather unpleasant relationship between the two extends well back into the past and the main reason is that Facebook has been refusing to allow Google to use its user data. While Facebook officially says that it won’t share the data because of privacy reasons of the users, Larry Page says that is false.

Apple’s success in the smartphone and tablet market has brought it an unprecedented success. iPad and iPhone are flying right of the shelves in millions and this has hugely increased the semiconductor consumption of Apple, making it the largest chip buyer in the whole world. Although Samsung comes second in the list, it is still far off in terms of buying volume, when compared to Apple.
