add heywood Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Ive got a Linksys WRT54 wireless router that I use for my laptop (whick Im using now lol). The problem is when I try to wire my PS3 to the back of it withan Ethernet cable or try to link it wireless with the PS3. The router will turn itself off after about 15 seconds of the PS3 trying to work through it and will carry on rebooting until you stop. But yet it will work wired and wirless with the laptop. I want to play a bit of COD5 but the Mrs wants to go on the laptop.... Any help much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Hello mate, don't have a PS3 but did some searching, have you tried updating firmware on router? Also found this link which I am not sure if it is any help for you? http://www.osnn.net/general-hardware/95547-problem-linksys-router-playstation-3-a.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Thanks Abz, Ive tried to update the firmware but think Ill try again now. Didn't think to google the problem, will go and have a play now. If you don't see me on here for a while it means I've broken it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Is it a WRT54GR ? They are shit! I've also got a WRT54GR and it drives me mad. I have to reboot the damn thing about once an hour or my (20meg) broadband slows down so much that web pages take ages to load. Be careful to get exactly the right firmware if you're going to attempt to upgrade it. There are two different versions of the WRT54GR - you don;t want to flash it with the wrong one or you might brick your router. I tried to flash mine anyway cos if I cant fix the fucking thing I'm going to defenestrate it. Sadly the flashing failed to do anything. Ignore all the above if yours isn't a WRT54GR !
