SCEE warns of intermittent connection to PSN

If you find yourself having trouble connecting to the PSN, fret not. That's just because SCEE has taken it upon themselves to close down the network in certain areas.

No, there's not another hack going on. Rather, it's because of the expected heavy flow of traffic onto the PSN's network. This should be expected, of course, considering that people are rushing to get back online after some three weaks of dead, cold silence from PSN. Simply put, it's a matter of managing the rush of ISPs on PSN.

The only thing is that they did not divulge which specific areas will be affected by this intermittent shutdown, or what time will it be happening. Still, best be on the lookout for it. If you do encounter it, at least you know what's going on.

It's working fine now but PSS isn't, still.

PSS (PS Store) will take sometime to get working, I guess.

I tried playing Portal 2 with my mate through Steam.

Me on PC and him on PS3, we had severe lag and we're only a couple of miles from each other.

Whether its related to this I'm unsure, but I assume it is, until then Portal 2 on PC or Mac for my mate.

I keep losing connection to server, oh well..I suppose they will fix the problem soon. And when will people learn? Most of us know the playstation store is not up and you would too if you learn to read idiot! It is not expected to be back up until the 31rst. This has been reported over and over yet everytime I look at a message board there are several morons who ask about it.
