Same here. I guess the wireless connection is just much slower on the PS3. The fact is, wireless connections are slsower than wired connections. My laptop has faster internet while on a wired connection then when on wireless. When downloading demos and updates for my PS3, I usually connect it thru a wireless connection by bringing it by router. If you've got a wireless connection, my guess is that you can find a way to use a wired connections.

Agree all depends on your connection speed. did the same just to see if there was a difference and there was none downloaded things pretty much at the same speed.

I used to download at a decent speed about a month ago but when I tried downloading the Lair trailer yesterday and today, the download was slow as hell.  After about 15mins, it was still at like 25%.  Anyone know why the downloading slowed down so much because my PS3's internet connectivity is still 90% to 100%.

Not for me... When I had my PS3 plugged into the router I downloaded REALLY fast..less than 10min for everything. Now with wireless it takes like 10min to go 10%.

Downloads are slow via Ethernet or Wireless however the 360's are just as bad.
