Keeps giving me a Cannot establish server connection error.

It worked once and it was in the middle of the long assed updating process so I could setup a Playstation Network account, when it crapped out and hasn't worked since.

Any ideas?

Do you have a router? Reset it and your cable modem.

It's through the ethernet jack in the wall... which means the modem is somewhere in a place I don't know where.

The joy of university connections.

I'll try contacting the grad assistant in charge of the apartments.

Thanks. :)

Try going through the automatic network detection process again, and make sure it's set to get your IP address automatically. If you have a static IP in there and it changed when your campus rebooted things, that might be what's causing the problem.
