PlayStation®3 General Discussion

Was playing fifa 10 yesterday online with a mate, and my Modem(Virgin Media) and my router(Netgear), is in the kitchen and my PS3 is in the lounge, and the modem and router are about 3Feet away from the PS3(if we knocked down the wall) between the lounge and the kitchen.

So basically, my Modem is connected to this small white box on the wall, is there anyway of moving my modem and router?

 because i want to put them into my lounge to boost my PS3 internet speed

Is there anyway to have wireless and wired internet? because i currently have wireless and i want my ps3 wired to make it faster

Wired is the way to go to decrease 'ping' which is the delay or lag you sometimes experience while on line gaming, upload and download speeds have little to do with it as long as you broadband

Get a better ISP or switch off your P2P software !!!!!!!!!!!

You need an ethernet cable from your router to your PS3

To make my ps3 have a wired connection, is all i do is plug an ethernet cable into the ps3 and the modem?

If you have more than 90mS of ping your setup sucks
