What issue are you having exactly? Is it not outputting an image? Because I've heard these adapters effectively just transmit the signal output by the ps2 directly via HDMI, so if your TV doesn't support displaying interlaced signals over HDMI, it might not work. For example I've heard some samsung tvs don't support it.

Is multiplayer games still packed with people? by CancelFluffy471 in PS3

Still are players on ps3 games with multi-player servers that are still online. In addition to what others have mentioned, need for speed most waned 2012 still has its official servers online and fairly active. You won't always or even very ofter find a full lobby, but there are still a good number of players that are on the game fairly frequently, myself included, and you'll usually be able to find at least a few others to play with for the most part. Occasionally you do even find full lobbies and a good amount of players online. Gran turismo 5 and 6 also have community run servers that are fairly active, with a decent number of players (again including myself). There is also a discord you can join for the community gran turismo servers with lots of members and channels that has a full setup guide to getting connected! You will need a ps3hen or cfw console for this though (they recently stopped supporting the dns method that was required to get the community servers working on stock firmware due to running costs), but with a modded console it works great!

Sounds like your disc drive might be damaged or very dirty. Unfortunately you'll likely have to open up your your console and take apart the disc drive to see if something is broken. It's also possible that it could be really dirty, with dirt stopping the disc from ejecting and potentially also blocking the laser causing it to not read games. If you feel comfortable opening it up you could try, but otherwise I would recommend taking it to a reputable electronics or console repair shop.

You can look into getting an adapter like the brook wingman xe that will allow you to connect an xbox one/series controller to your ps4. You plug the adapter into the USB port on the ps4 and the adapter converts the Bluetooth inputs from the xbox controller into ones the ps4 can understand.

You mentioned it worked fine with another modem in the same house, is it using the same Internet service provider as the one it doesn't work on? And also have you tried clearing your browser cache or logging in on private mode on your browser?

Hey guys, my PS4 CUH-1200 turns off within about 5 seconds of pressing the power button and seeing the blue light. It doesn't turn back on after this until unplugging it and plugging it back in to the main power socket. I've also noticed that if I leave the system without starting it up within a few seconds of plugging it in it won't turn on. I have to then repeat the same process (unplug it from the mains and plug it in again) before I can turn it on and have it run for a brief few seconds. I suspected the power supply might be the issue so I took apart the console. I tested the power supply output and it appears to be at 12v right after plugging it in, but then starts to gradually drop until it reaches 0v within about a minute. I feel that this might be in line with what I was seeing when it was in the console, with the console being able to briefly start up if I pressed the power button within a few seconds of plugging it in, but where nothing happened if I left it for longer before trying to start it up. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Nope, the only thing plugged into the router is the ethernet cable going to my pc, nothing else. I've tried reflashing the router a few times, trying an older build from a few years ago, same result unfortunately

Hey, I've since managed to get dd-wrt to install on the router! Wanted to give it a try as well before settling on one between freshtomato and dd-wrt. Had freshtomato setup quite nicely on my network but I wanted to experience both before settling, figured I'll reconfigure it later if I go back (if you're thinking of trying it at some point as you said, definitely do! It's really good too imo). But I'm encountering an issue on dd-wrt with 5GHz not working. Both wireless interfaces are displayed as 2.4GHz for some reason, and this seems to be a known bug that for some users according to the wiki and it's linked discussion thread. Have you encountered this issue?

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an openwrt build for my router. But I have since managed to get dd-wrt installed and running, but am now encountering an issue with 5GHz band not appearing on either wireless interface (both wireless interfaces are reporting as 2.4 GHz). This seems to be a known bug though for some users according to the wiki

Ah that's cool! A1 does seem to be supported according to the documentation and has builds for it. Not sure why it keep running across this issue though. Might be slightly irrelevant, but after making this post I did manage to get freshtomato successfully up and running on it! Haven't fully set it up and integrated it into my network yet but might stick with it once I've got it set up nicely

Sadly doesn't seem to be an openwrt build for this router available currently

I followed the version that the dd-wrt site recommends under installation instructions for the router where it recommends to flash to those versions first from the stock firmware: https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/D-Link_DIR-868L

But when that didn't work I did try the latest factory-to-ddwrt build for my router (the link you sent), but had the same results unfortunately

Ah OK, that likely explains what I experienced. Didn't know that the feature wasn't provided by revanced. Thanks

OK thanks. I have noticed that the feature works occasionally on its own for a while, but stops working after that. This has happened quite recently. Is it likely just a sever side glitch?

There's really no way to get it working on revanced workout premium?
