AsidXxx Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Is there any way to download the PSN content to PC, and then install it on the PS3? Downloading on the PS3 doesnt seem a very reliable option. Have got almost 40Gb of downloads queued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yes, use PS3 Proxy. See the tutorial here - http://archive.techtree.com/techtree/jsp/article.jsp?article_id=115651&cat_id=899 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsidXxx Posted August 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 ^^Not working on my system Maybe because I am using a 3G USB dongle, and use Connectify Pro to create a virtual Wi-Fi hotspot (infrastructure mode). Is there no other way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Oh.. I have no experience with virtual hot-spots :\ There must be a way, but it is hard to figure out without actually lingering with the system.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than using ps3proxy as ps3 takes much less power than most pcs(atleast mine) and u will end up with lower power bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a 3G dongle which means I have to keep my laptop on too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS3Proxy server seems to start, but the PS3 wont connect to the proxy. Internet connection fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Try connecting ps3 to laptop via crossover cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsidXxx Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Still downloading via the laptop by creating a virtual router. What I want to know is - - All of the free games that I've downloaded are slated to expire once my 3 month subscription ends? Is there no way I can keep them forever? I have 2 PSN accounts, and 2 PS3 accounts. Each PSN account is attached to 1 PS3 user. One India PSN account and one US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Nope, once your PS+ subscription expires you won't be able to play the free games you got as PS+ user. Games expire as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madgeek Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 just wanted to check if the PS3 proxy server method still worked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosh Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Ya,just when you are going to start the transfer from PC to ps3 make sure the download is done in background.rest is same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madgeek Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 k thanks. Any recommended download managers? Can you put out a revised step by step? If I remember correctly. One had to start the download and then pause. Grab the link. Download on PC. Come back later (days later). Add link to Proxy Server Then download again and click download in background. Right?

One had to start the download and then pause. Grab the link. Download on PC. Come back later (days later). Add link to Proxy Server Then download again and click download in background. Right? 1. On ps3 start the download. Then click "Background download". Pause the download. 2. Now start your proxy server in pc. Input proxy server details in PS3 network settings. 3. Resume the paused download from download management. 4. Grab the link from proxy server. You can use any download manager to download the .pkg file from that link. 5. After download completes. Go to replace files in proxy server & add the downloaded .pkg file with the link. 6. Resume download from PS3 again. It should transfer from your pc now.
