So I called Sony tech support, and it seems the only way to go forward is to bring the console back in for service.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unfortunate, and although it&#8217;s not a huge problem like not being able to use any discs, I cannot accept a refurbished PS3 that is not fully functioning. Apart from the disc drive problem, my previous PS3 worked perfectly and didn&#8217;t have a single wireless drop-out in the 9 months I&#8217;ve had it, and I want something like that back. And I could understand if the wireless drops out and I was able to re-connect, but with my problem, the only solution is to actually restart the machine &#8230; no amount of re-connecting will get the PS3 to see any wireless controllers\/remotes, and I&#8217;m sure restarting the PS3 all the time can&#8217;t be good for its lone term health. I have only one and a half month left on my warranty, so it&#8217;s a no brainer whether I get it serviced now or wait until the problem becomes something more serious.<\/p>\n<p>I will keep you updated on the progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As posted earlier, I was waiting for my wireless controller\/remote problem to occur once more before calling Sony tech support, just to give the PS3 one more chance to not malfunction, but it happened again last night (that&#8217;s twice already that is has occured just after starting the console, plus the few times that it [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ps3"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pzVMv-7E","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=474"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":476,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474\/revisions\/476"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.digital-digest.com\/blog\/DVDGuy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
