Title: Wireless router/access point
Post by: J J on June 11, 2007, 02:35:59 PM
Does anyone know of a good wireless router/access point that i can use to go online with my ps3. I've looked at loads but can't work out which one is the best. Any help will be much appreciated.

I have a Linksys wrt54g(i think it's v2.2) and it has been working great for about 3 yrs now. The thing i like about this model is that it runs on linux so there are plenty of custom firmwares out there which further enhance it's capabilities.

EDIT: I have no idea if PS3 needs some sort of a special router, i'm guessing it is compatible with all regular wireless routers but i will check and report back ...

Thanks bob3160 and Darth_Mikey. Both links were  helpful especially yours Darth_Mikey. Now i just need to install a network interface card and I'll be sorted. If anyone has any info on network interface cards it would be a great help as well, especially on compatibility issues.

i'll look forward to more great replies.

Just so everyone knows I've finished setting up the wireless router and the ps3 works perfect. (In case anyone decides to post something in). ;D
