[ps3] 2 Ps3 questions

1)My ps3 is connected to my home wireless network. Is there a way to hardwire the ps3 to my directTV box, so that I can use the on demand feature that DTV offers?

2)I use a Logitec Harmony 880, and recently saw a ps3 blu-ray adapter for sale on their site. Saw some comments about this device causing problems with the game controller. Does anyone have any input on this issue?

Many thanks for any help.

You cant use the PS3 as a wireless bridge to your DTV receiver. You'll have to buy a wireless gaming adapter or buy the wireless adapter DTV offers.

Are you refering to this Logitech PS3 bluetooth adapter , if so I've never read a bad review about it.

Thanks for your DTV answer. Yes, that is the adapter. The first reviews I read were all good, but then several in a row mentioned their game controllers becoming unpaired.

There are 2 jacks on the back of the HDDVR Direct TV box. one of them acts as bridge so you can plug your connection into the Direct Tv box then plug your PS3 into the other jack This is only on the HDDVR box

If the bridge through the direct tv DVR doesn't work, an ethernet switch might be a good idea. There you can connect multiple things to the internet in your home theater. Here's the links for the two I found,
»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···33127085

»www.bestbuy.com/site/Linksys+-+F···p=1&lp=9

The one from newegg sounds better, it costs only about $4 after mail in rebate. You just download the rebate PDF near the price, or I put the link here if you couldn't find it,
