Cant log on questions

Um yea for some odd reason i cant log on. I checked my router and my ehternet cord and they r all fine. So i went to see if my internet still worked on regular cpu and it did.

However whenever i try to log onto playonline with my ps2 it says some dchp or w/e does not respond. My question is is it because i changed my billing info to my credit card and not stay on my moms?

This is the only thing I think could be the problem and if so what do i do.

mmmm try resetting your modem and router, then delet the connection info on your PS2 and recreat it, that should work

I had that problem once,

I could normally log on then one day he wouldn't let me.
Contacted SE support and they told me I had to open some ports to my PC on my router.
It worked again after.
Since I am on a different connection now I don't know which ports anymore.
But SE technical webssupport can tell you which you need to open.

a port scanner utility can tell you what ports it's trying to connect with.

If you use a port scanner or packet sniffer look for packets going to the following networks.

I once did a packet sniff test to check the SSL, there wasn't any...

Everything should be going over port 80 (default HTTP port) However some people have it proxied to 81-83 or 8080.
