Yet another slow PS3 Network Question.

Ok, I've got a 10down, 2up connection.

I've tested it wireless on my laptop=10down, 2up

I've tested it on my wired xbox 360=10down, 2up

I've tested it on my USB adapted PC=4down, 1up (USB network cards are half the speed, this is a normal reading)

Then I test it wired on the ps3=1.3down, 600up. (one 10th the speed!)

Wireless on the PS3=1.3down, 600up.

This is run through the router, and directly to the modem itself.

I've read countless other posts with people having the same problem. When sony is contacted, they always seem to suggest that something is wrong with the customer's setup. My question is:

How could it be my network setup when I plug the laptop into the modem, and I get 10megs down, and then plug into the ps3, and get 1????.....I'm going to the SAME website to test hte speed (speakeasy), to the same speakeasy server.

So, I've ruled everything out except the PS3 hardware. It's either a faulty setting, or a faulty network card. Has anyone else come across this problem, and fixed it?

I honestly think that sony knows something is wrong, they just don't want to have a recall because they'd basically lose what little progress they've made with the ps3.

Dunno about you buddy, but I'm fine.

How are you checking your XBox connection?

And your PS3 connection?

Are you talking about DOwnloads? Or during games? (they are different)

Or are you talking about idle?

I'm guessing you are looking at and calculating download speeds by how fast they download and how big the files are?

You really can't blame the network since it's still pretty new. XBL has been out since XBOX so it has had time.

Now if you are saying the PS3 can't handle your dl and a ul speeds then you are wrong.

However it could be the way you have your setup hooked-up (open some ports - there's info on the internet [] maybe your encryption is doing that I've heard some security feature do that [] that is also on the net ). It does seems like it from here, Sony may be right.
