You might have to open certain ports on your router. Firewall might be blocking your connection to the servers.

Would u mind trying to find something saying which ports....casue my mom fixed something earlier so i could get the update (because it kept on giving me an error)...
thanks

I found this on Google:

Hi there. I had the same problem with Vegas 2. But I solved it :)

Most likely your internet connection streams through a router.

So what you want to do is to go to your routers page. (Open your web browser and type in your router's IP adress. Example: http://192.168.1.1)

What you have to do is to port forward.
You'll find it under: "Firewall" in the section of Gaming or Port forward or Virtual Servers.

Vegas 2 uses a couple of ports:

3478 UPD
3479 UPD
3658 UPD

80 TCP
443 TCP
3478 TCP
3479 TCP
3480 TCP
5223 TCP
8080 TCP

You'll need to open theese ports to be able to play Vegas 2 online properly.

HOW TO PORT FORWARD:

Open up your router's page and go to the port forward or virtual servers section.

1. You need to type in your PS3's IP adress.
2. Select UPD or TCP
3. And under the first white field type in your port.
4. Under the second white field type in the same number as the first one.
5. Click "Enable" and "Set".

Example:

Lan IP: 192.168.1.100
Protocol type: TCP
LAN port/beginning port: 3479
Public port/ending port: 3479

And enable it.

Once you've done this to all of the ports, restart the router and test your PS3's connectivity.

You should be able to play proberly now :)

Hopefully my mom can understand that stuff...im no computer geek

[xMrFoxhoundx]

Its not hard to understand...You don't have to know what the stuff stands for to follow the step by step instructions. I have no idea what UPD or TCP stand for but I know how to open ports and stuff.

[GhOsT-AsSaSs1n]

I dont even kno my IP adress or where to find it lol

[xMrFoxhoundx]

Theres websites for that.
What is my IP address? Show my IP address. IP Tracer & IP Locator.
