Re: [Internet] PS3 super slow speed w/ WIFI to sagemcom 2864

said by Glen1:

Seriously I would not use a wireless connection with the PS3 because of the latency introduced...can you run a cat 5e to the device from the modem to the PS3. The game will run much better. I am a PC gamer so I am not familiar with the PS3 connections...is there an RJ45 available on the device?

yes

I have also found LAN media streaming doesn't always work great on PS3 wi-fi. You either need to copy the file over or use the ethernet cable to stream. Not entirely sure why this is an issue as its not bandwidth. I've heard some places that perhaps the PS3 doesn't prefetch enough on variable bitrate videos and the wi-fi introduces enough latency to cause trouble.
