Hacking ps3 proxy server not working

[tmnr1992]

I got a ps3 slim recently, and i'm trying to connect it to ps3 proxy server, I've followed many tutorials on how to use it. and at one step the console is supposed to try to connect to the proxy server and there should be a log from the connection attempt, from which i should get a link for the next step, so I guess the console never even tries to connect in the first place? so is there anything that I'm doing wrong?

I just recently decided to try the proxy for ps3 and was having trouble getting it to connect. I read dozens of posts on it and made sure it was set up right(which it was) I got irritated with so gave up on it but decided I'd try it one more time and it worked. the only thing I can think of that may have caused a problem was I had turned off "connect to media server" I turned it on before attempting this last time. I suggest trying this.
