Hi all! I've been trying to download the update for the last 3 days but no luck :(. I tried all the different methods of advice and solutions but it still won't work properly. First I tried a wireless connection with the network setting set to 1 then tried 2 and cleared cache but it didn't work so I tried a wired connection with network setting 1 and then tried 2 and through all of these, I had disabled the Media Server Connection in the PS3 Network settings menu. The last attempt with the wired connection and network setting set to 2 seemed to be the most successful of the 4 solutions as it downloaded about 25% but then I got the error so I tried 2 more times and it wouldn't even reach that now.

I read on the GT5P site that the download should continue on from where it left off but it doesn't seem that way as it takes ages to do a little bit even though I downloaded around 100+ MBs already but it still seems to download from scratch.

To be honest, I really had it now. I've been trying for the last 3 days, giving each solutions a fair few tries but still, it won't bloody download :grumpy:. Its not as if my net connection disconnects as when I try accessing the net through my PC (after the error happened, I left the connection dedicated to the PS3 for the update) it still worked so can anyone please please tell me a solution to this?
 
I can confirm it does restart from where it finished (although the progress bar starts from the beginning). Select the news in the main menu and it should reattempt - just keep trying - different times of the day/days etc - it will eventually complete the download.
 
Try downloading at other times where there is less people , for me I downloaded it at 1 a.m GMT , and got it with one attempt ! .(wireless connection and its a bad one also ) .
