Hmm, im not too savvy on this stuff. The router is right outside my room, and I have the laptop in my room, and theres a computer upstairs my grandmother uses. Its a linksys I believe? Had it since 05. What do I do, just buy a new router and plug it up? Or do I have to configure a bunch of settings and what not? Also have a card that sticks into the side of the computer?
I had it set up for wireless connection on the ps3 when I first got it, and it worked flawlessly, everytime, no hiccups. I put in a bunch of time on waw, went to play it one day and I kept getting bumped off, and the light on the bottom of the ps3 that shows the signal strentgh just flickers erratically. I can connect to the network and browse the ps store, but if I go to preview a 2 min movie clip, it plays 2 sec then has to buffer and load, then it'll play another 2 secs, etc. So ****ing annoying, I never messed or changed any settings, so WHY THE **** DOES IT DO THIS?! I dont understand it, so I traded in waw and dont really play that much anymore.
I'm no expert but I'm confident I can tell you for sure that your router is outdated and the reason it stopped working was because Sony phased out that model router in an update. Maybe someone can confirm that but I'm almost positive it's your router.
