It's usually a communication thing with the router. How far from the router are you? Is the ps3 hidden in a cabinet or are there other electronics and walls between the ps3 and the router?

Try moving it around the room and seeing where the connection is more consistent.

I have my SKY HD box beside it, its an open shelf set up.. I also have a IR sender/receiver box. Its a small box with a scart connection sending the picture signal upstairs to another tv.. That could be a problem perhaps?

You have the router beside it? Have you tried a physical connection rather than the wireless?

no, sorry, the router is upstairs.. Its the only place for it. I have tried the physical connection and if i remeber correctly it also logged me out after a period of time. Im going to buy a home plug anyway, might help somewhat

whats your signal strength?

if it is sub 35%, you will get random disconnections....

I had the same troubles, then, I bought a range extender from Amazon...no troubles now and I have 100% signal strength in stead of 27%.

its 50%-60% all the time.. and as i speak I am logged out! gone!! Like, I dont think it is my internet line dropping because, for example, I am logged into MSN and that doesnt say that I have been disconnected.. So its a problem with the PS3/PSN/router?

do you have any firewalls setup?

try disabling them and see if that helps with the disconnects.

Don't feel pregnant. Mine signs me out all the time too. My PS3 has always given me troubles with networking.. both wireless and wired. I never use it to stream media because I have constant little error messages in the top right hand corner.. something about DLNA. The media still streams..... but the constant messages are annoying.


I also ended up having to assign IP addresses to every device on my network because every time I turned my PS3 on, it would grab an IP address that was already in use and crash my whole network.
