My HDTV is finally coming tomorrow :D

So I'm just wondering how far your wireless routers are from your Playstation 3

Also, what is your signal on the Playstation 3?

My router is probably 20-25 feet away from the Playstation 3 so I'm kinda worried I will get a poor signal

I have a WRT54GL

literally it's probably 30 feet away, mind you it's downstairs in the den, and my ps3 is upstairs in my room. i have a signal strength of 100%, which is actually weird because my pc has a lower signal than that. i have never had a problem with lag, though. i have an older netgear router... um maybe 4 years old.

maybe your router is sending out a fake percintile.

Mine is about 30 feet and one flight of stairs down. I usually get about 45% signal strength.

My router is in the basement, but I run an ethernet cable up to my TV upstairs. Nice little hole drilled in the floor. You can't even see it.

My router is about 59 ft away, 1 level up and on the complete opposite side of the house. I can't get online while using my big tv :( . I think I'm going to upgrade from the stock antenna and get one with more gain, or possibly a directional antenna.
