PS3 Firmware 3.21 Firmware Bypass

Let's face it. Sony has backed you up in a corner. As of right now, you can't officially play the Playstation 3 online without downloading the new PS3 3.21 firmware update, but if you download, your precious "Other OS" is forfeit, on top of which, there might also be a whole slue of other side effects. You could wait it out, hoping that Geohot comes through with a workaround. If you live in europe, you can even sue Sony for a refund. Or, if you aren't terribly worried about the security of your PSN account and personal information, you could instead just input ten digits into your PS3 and magically bypass the entire issue.

Though technically minded individuals have been skirting around Sony's firmware checks for years now using private proxies, homebrew developer Aaron Lindsay decided to set up a public server at 67.202.81.137 , which allows anyone to piggyback on his success in mere seconds. We tried it out ourselves and not surprisingly, it worked like a charm. By doing so, you do run the risk of giving Aaron all your credentials, but if the odd identity thef doesn't break your stride, you can jump right back onto your online PS3 games by entering the above number into Internet Connection > DNS Setting > Primary DNS.
