Opinion: Best Wireless Router for PS3??

[blackpixels]

Would like to purchase one today. Thinking about the Linksys 802.11g $49.99 or the Buffalo Wireless-G High Speed Router (WHR-G125) for $24.99 @ CC. Thanks.

I'm using the D-Link DI-824VUP and the PS3 connected to it with no problems.

This model is probably discontinued, but it does provide all the WEP and WPA encryption and a hardware firewall as well as a wireless print router.

The print router is not really supported by the PS3.

I've been using this device for over 2 years and I had no problems with it.

The bottom line is... there isn't just one wireless router that will work efficiently with the PS3.

Go with the LYNKSYS one. It's a bleeding edge technology, but you might as well go with the most reliable brand. We have 5 of those in my family. No problems, yet.

Always liked Linksys until I got an Apple Airpot. I got the router with b/g/n --- n is flippin' fast! --- paired with FiOS it smokes. don't know what is in a PS3 though, but n is the future.

In particular and if you are willing to spend a few more $$$, go with the Linksys WRT150N Wireless N Home Router (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...blurayforum-20) This sucker is a workhorse. Some of the other Linksys routers are failing early or are flakey (such as the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX200 (WRT54GX2)). This one used to be a superstar but not any more.

I work in the IT industry and I have installed a ton of both (for friends ) and the WRT150N is solid as they come.

The best router would be the D-Link DIR-655 as it's the best performing router on the market.. http://www.dlink.com/products/?sec=1&pid=530

While Linksys routers are nice none of them really perform very well.. Check the link below to see results on routers currently available..

I work in IT and I would recommend the Linksys WRT54GX4 if you can find it. It is out of production but it is by far the best Linksys router I have used and even better than my Linksys N router WRT350N (which was $149). It has great range and speed. BTW I have used all brands like, D-link, Netgear, Buffalo, Linksys, etc. and that one by far is the best one.

Same setup here, Apple Airport Extreme b/g/n, and a FiOS connection, it is great. Although the PS3 is 802.11b/g, not as fast as n but g is pretty good. Do you have FiOS TV too? It will soon be available in my area and am looking for any input before deciding? Thanks.

Linksys, but Apple Airport is really good as well !

Get a Buffalo Technology router. The AOSS feature works great with the PS3. I have the WHRHPG54. My PC and PS3's wireless network was setup in about 5 minutes. I've had it for over a month now, and have not had a single little hiccup yet with the connection.

I'm running draft-n to my laptops, g to my PS3 and iPhone, and Gig-E to my NAS and my home PC. It supports USB printer and USB disk as a NAS available to your whole network.
