I'm having problems setting up a static IP on my ethernet connection for my ps3. I have set it up using the system-config-network application but it seems to have a bug and default to DHCP and consequently its not at the IP address I wish the ps3 to be on. I'm just about at my wits end. From information I have gathered I think I might have to change the configuration files used to get around the bug. If that is the case could somebody inform me of the correct configuration files to change as I do not want to change the wrong ones. Also if there is an easier way around this issue then I would much prefer to do that.
Basically I need my ps3 to be on a static IP so that I can setup portforwarding for bittorrent as I've read its supposed to increase the speed. I'm using Transmission at the moment and did have speeds of around 100kbps however at the moment Im lucky if I can reach 1kbps so I think there must be some network problem.
If anyone can help me setup a static IP address for my PS3 and also help me configure a bittorrent client to work properly on the ps3 then I would be more than grateful.
Cheers
Dan
