Wireless vs. Wired

Post by Yragha1 »

Could you help me out and list some of the +/ - to either.

Also, I know it's possible to go wireless to the ps3 but I take it it's possible to be wireless from your incoming internet connection/router to the computer as well?

Secondly, should I go wireless do you recommend changing the default passkey or whatever or keeping the default?

Your input would be appreciated as I've never experienced the wireless side of this and would welcome your input.

I would always go wired when playing games. Even with an 85-90% signal strength with wireless, you're going to have problems/lag.

Is there a way to tell how much your fast your ps3 is actually working ?

down/up speeds

I assume if you log onto speedtest.net on the ps3 and run that that it will resemble what the
ps3 is running correct?

just wondering to see if I can compare wired vs. wireless is all

i go wireless and my router is sitting right next to the ps3. its makes it alot easier when i want to bring down the ps3 and watch blue ray movies on the big screen not having to change settings. i dont see any lag when playing wireless.
