Re: Using wireless connection to the PS3?

Wireless is tricky, If your PC says your connected at 108mb/s to the network/router its more like 280kb/s it just means its theoretically possible to reach 108mb/s. I myself have got 2mb/s out of my connection from my wireless network. But i have spent $180 (AUS) on two High Gain Antenna's to achieve this.

Its also down to the router you select, cheap models wont cut it especially for gaming, Ive got a D-Link Gamers Lounge which set me back $230 (AUS) which gives me a network latency of 2ms between PC's and is able to support multiple ports open at once on multiple PC's.

So unless your willing to spend big money to get a wireless connection the 10th of the speed of a cable connection i would use a cable. (Im renting so cabling isn't possible)
