I’ve been trying to stream media from my computer to the PS3. So far my guess is that the reason it isn’t working is because when I go to,
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Media streaming options,
the pull down menu ‘Show devices on:’ is on ‘Local network’ and only shows only my PC. Whenever I change it to ‘All networks’ I see the ‘Unknown Device’ (I think this is the PS3). When I click ‘OK’ it doesn’t seem to keep the changes. When I reopen ‘Choose media streaming options…’ it’s back on ‘Local network’.
We recently got a new router (Linksys E2500) and this issue seemed to start about then. It could have something to do with the router but I’m wondering why these setting won’t save for me. If I recall correctly, these settings saved when we used our old router. Just some other info that may be useful, my computer has a wired connection to the router and the PS3 is connecting wirelessly.
Any ideas how to fix this?
