I agree, why don't you water your Ethernet cable and pray for it to grow.

Save money and go wireless, I know you don't want to because you'll say next, but it's the truth.

WIRELESS WILL SET YOU FREE!!

Buy a longer cable I have a wireless router but it's rubbish. The cable that came with the PS3 is too short so I bought a longer cable for around EUR18 (approx $13) and now i'm in online/internet heaven.

Do you go to PWA? I know of someone with "Liam" for their wrestler name. I just wanted to know if this is the same person.

You sure were talking about the same PWA?

PWA is Pojo Wrestling Alliance (Role Playing Wrestling fed) based on Wrestling. You do alot of writing to determine who wins the match.

Gaming Soil, I don't know when you should trim it. Probably about the right length you need to plug into your PS3. You only pull it out when you decide to go Wireless.

The only thing you can do is go wierless or buy/make a longer cable. Both of these options would mean a trip to a electronics store of some kind. Unless you want to move your console closer to the modem.

This really should not be much of a problem. 50 cent for 1 foot long cable in any local "Home Depot" or depending where you live Home Hardware cables of any kind.

I help my cousin set him up in his house from basement to second floor for 16$ spending on extended cable.

I hope that helps.

Buy a bag of Twizlers, wrap them in aluminium foil and tape them together. Walla! You've got yourself a cable.

You can get a wireless router for about 40 dollars. That would do it.
