You would need a virtual machine (VDS) instead, so that you can run some VPN software on your computer, and have your PS3 connect through it using Internet Connection Sharing.

You can convert your game/voice server to a VDS through a change order by selecting "this is a change to an existing server" on the order page. So, you'd start on the VDS order page (where you'd really only need a single-core Linux only VDS): https://www.nfoservers.com/order-virtua ... server.php

We have a quick guide on getting setup with OpenVPN on a Linux VDS here: viewtopic.php?f=46&t=11034

And while this guide is on the Xbox/Microsoft site, it states how to get going with Internet Connection Sharing, which is the second part of what you'll need to do to get everything hooked up on your VPN: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one ... c67e7bac7x

So, basically, you'll install OpenVPN Server on your VDS, install OpenVPN Client on your PC, run OpenVPN Client software on your PC, and then use Internet Connection sharing on your PC with your Playstation connected through it.
