Did you join our team recently ?

My playstation 3 broke, Sony was kind enough to send me a new unit and I spend 15 minutes or so redownloading things. I have been a team member for some time, although I have a new machine and I just rejoined on Monday.

Life with PlayStation keeps track of a PS3 exclusive WU's completed stat that's attached to your PSN account so it can be easily downloaded if you reinstall LwP.

Folding@home and Life with PlayStation discussion should now both go in this sticky.

You should already be online with your ps3 since you have to be in order to download home. If you're playing behind a firewall, you need to open up certain ports. The team number is under join an existing team. You type in the number.

Hold down SQUARE to bring up the channel select screen. Here you press up/down to switch between the 'Live' and 'Folding@home' channels.

While you're in the Folding@home channel:

TRIANGLE button > Current Channel > Identity

Folding continues in the background no matter which of the two channels you're viewing.

I wonder if Life will stay as is once Home is up... of if it will change drastically. Life feels like a beta.. there's nothing there.

Alright this is the second time my F@H has done this.

I get the error:
Unable to connect to server.

Last time I reinstalled F@H and it did the trick, but I lost over 100 Folding units.

Now I'm back up to 40 units and I'm having the same issue. Has anyone figured out how to resolve this without reinstalling F@H and losing all your folding units?
