Hi Stephanie: I've come across something similar sometime ago. However in my situation it was a matter of cross-checking that what I was downloading was within the transmission parameters of the account I have with my ISP.
I found it also useful to check the firewall settings within YDL and make sure it wasn't blocking everything or rather that what the firewall was blocking followed the restrictions which make sense within my environment. Unfortunately what makes sense for me to block may not be practical for you -- nonetheless check that your firewall within YDL is at an optimal setting for your needs. Remember also within YDL to check Network Device Control which you get to by: YDL Menu --> Applications --> System Tools --> Network Device Control Opening this particular application requires using your root password. When that has been done the Network Configuration dialog opens allowing several options within each tab. Make sure that each tab has the correct settings and listings of Ethernet devices used in the PS3. To change anything click on Edit and be sure to save any changed settings. You can set the Ethernet port to be active at boot or at command depending on your preferences but other possibilities exist as well. For more details it may be useful to refer to the Yellow Dog Community Board: http://yellowdog-board.com/ All the best...
