PS3 Internet problems...

Hello fellow gamespoters, I got a problem with my internet speed on my playstation 3. I have great internet, and a good router, however, the speed still sucks. In addition, the internet on my laptop works perfect... Any suggestions or tips?

On the XMB, look at the Network Settings. You can check the download/upload speed, as well as the signal strength from your router. What are those numbers? That would be the first step in diagnosing if your PS3 is receiving a strong signal from your router or not.

The signal strength on the ps3 says 95%.

Same here the download speed is slow. Right now im using wired connection to it. Downloading rented movie from PSN. I had to keep pressing pause and resume because it stop downlaoding after few seconds. It really making me mad.

If you've got 95% signal strength, it might just be that PSN is slow. Took me 2 - 3 hours to download the Section 8 demo the other day. Browsing through the store seem to work really fast though.

I was having similar problems for a long time, and just recently fixed it. I have a wireless router, and for some reason I could not download stuff very well, especially updates, when I downloaded updates, the downloads would freeze everytime.

So when I looked at my router settings, I had "plug and play" on. I turned it off, and now my internet on my PS3 works perfect. However my network became alot more sensitive to things that PurelyCourteous mentioned

Hope this helped!

This seemed to help me when I was having internet connectivity problems with PS3: try changing your PS3 network device's operation mode from Automatic to a different duplex (1000T Full-Duplex is what mine is set to), and as was suggested, turn off UPnP. If you are on a wireless setting, I'd also try switching to wired; helped me tons.

I can't sign in to hotmail; every time I try, I get the "wrong address or password" message in red. It's beenlike thatfor months, despite Sony's promises for a fix. :(
