Which router/adapter should I buy for my PS3? - Blu-ray Forum

FourToedStatue · 11-20-2006, 03:28 AM

So I was able to snag a 20GB PS3. This one has no built in wifi. Anyone have any recommendations as to which router I should buy?

Belkin, i give Belkin a big yes, because these are the esthetically best looking routers, also networking web interface is a breeze, and are bridgeable easily. I have 3 of them, the one in the basement serves my gaming PC (latency 64ns or better), HD-A1, and Escient DVD/SACD server.

You'll never regret getting one. As for Linksys, makes me wanna puke. We have a very large WiFi network (more than 100 routers) and on average 3 break down every month.

Don't take my advice as expert, i'm just a janitor

Linksys just got a bad reputation.

You might wanna try D-Link instead.

Netgear.

Smart, easy to set up. Fast.

Their new draft-802.11n model passes thru gigabit ethernet (the PS3 possesses a GB ethernet jack). Most new PCs as well.

I am looking for a new router as well, Wi-fi and regular in one.

Someone at a computershop recomended the following brands for routers:
Zyksel and Nlightdata.

I'm using a Netgear WGR614 wireless g router.

No problems or complaints. You probably can get it pretty cheap now.

D-link is pretty good as well.
