Hi. Was going crazy with inability to connect for online gaming via wireless internet. Had good signal strength, but inadequate speed. Have been searching for solution online and was about to buy a new router and signal booster. No need. Here's what I found, with great difficulty, on the psn site. It worked beautifully with some minor changes.
Reboot ALL Network Equipment, including Any VOIP Modems
Reboot simply means to turn the device off (i.e., unplug it from the power source), and then to turn it back on again after a set period of time (in this case, two minutes). This will allow the network device to refresh its settings.
Reboot all of your network equipment, including any Wireless access points, routers, and broadband modems for two full minutes. After two minutes, you can turn on (or plug in) your equipment.
[Note: If you subscribe to Voice Over IP (VOIP) for telephone service, you'll need to make sure you have completely rebooted the VOIP equipment (i.e., VOIP modem) for two full minutes also. Many VOIP modems are equipped with back-up batteries that keep the device on, even after it's been unplugged. You may need to contact your ISP if you need more assistance with re-booting your VOIP device.]
My VOIP modem does have battery backup so instead of unplugging, find the reset button on the unit and activate it. The ps3 works great now. Wish this fix was better publicized since it seems many have this same issue.
Cheers!
