Go into Netwrork Settings, do a custom setup. Choose either wireless or wired (mine's wired, so do your wireless setup until you get to the next part). In operation mode of network device, choose Manual Settings. On speed and duplex, choose Auto-Detect. On IP Address setting, choose manual. IP Address should be 0.0.0.0 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Default Router 0.0.0.0 Primary DNS 208.67.222.222 Secondary DNS 208.67.220.220 Now press X to save the settings. This solved my issue, assuming you had a DNS error 8070102 or something like that. @earl:

Neither is some game's use of it. It's still the snappiest, most visually appealing and overall consistent ui i have ever used on any computer based machine. By a long way. If that's all you can find to fault it ... Neither the shop nor the browser are the XMB either. Neither is some game’s use of it.
