Since December I have been using my wireless router (Belkin, Wireless G router) to connect my notebook and my PS3 to the internet, but my PS3 has started having some type of issue. It still connects to the internet while wireless, still downloads too, but it will not connect to the PS Store at all. I called Sony support and they said it had something to do with my router not sending a strong enough signal to the PS3. However, the signal on the PS3, which is less than 5 feet away from it says 100%. Still, it won't open the store. I did run the ethernet cable from my modem straight to my PS3 (having the router disconnected) and it let me connect to the PS Store. So, then I hook my router back up, thinking I could keep my PC wireless and just run an ethernet cable from the back of the router's open ports to my PS3 but that didn't work either. I don't know what happened with the router, as I have changed nothing to the router or PS3 - well, I did reset the router removing all security to see if that helped but it didn't. Anyone know how else I can set the router so it will let the PS3 connect to the store?
