dir-300 doesnt work well for ps3(cant play online, cant even get PSN online sometimes).. get a belkin router.. to me it's the best there is..

^^

Well, i never had problems going online or logging into PSN.

Just have problems on certain games. Especially P2P games.

And i'm not confident of using wireless anymore, i might just settle for a phone line near my ps3 and use a modem directly connected instead to lessen all the headache.

guys, sorry i'm noob in networking...need some guidance if some may help me

i've a d-link DI-604 ethernet router (not wireless) n a normal modem...
want to connect both the pc n ps3 (wired), but not sure how to set them up...
i want a connection where it's always on even when my pc is turned off but ps3 is still connected (without manually signing in)...

may some1 help me out or mayb show me links to some guides?

in the router set up, there r dynamic, static, PPPoE n "others" options to connect to ISP...which to choose?

thanks if anyone may help me out

Erm, if you have a router.. you should be able to run it 24 hours no matter if your pc is on or not. I'm pretty sure in your router settings, there will be an option for you to choose to connect either by manually or always on. Obviously choose Always On.

Streamyx uses dynamic PPPoE.

I'm not sure about others.

For the PS3, for best performance. create a static IP (manually give IP). And DMZ it.

thanks aaron...
but one thing is i manually connect my streamyx when i on my pc, so if i set the router to Always-On, will i get connection after off pc?
wil creating a static ip solve tis?
thanks ...

Mine does DIR-300 is perfecto.

PS : For those with DIR-300 and having problems, do search up for dd-wrt Its a modded firmware for the router. Something like psp custom firmware. It might fix the problem.

I'm using DIR-615 Revision B with QOS engine. Everything is perfect, but some game I join still lag alot.

I really reckon people to get DIR-655 : D state of the art router...

Edit: In case if you want to know.. I can p2p very well while gaming online.

If your router is set to Always-on... it does not matter anymore if your pc is off. You're dialing thru the router directly, and not the PC. Your PC is only connected to the router to use the internet/LAN.

Erm, i hope i explain it right....

For me i use linksys WAG200G now. No problem at all since i connected with ps3 through wireless.

I had DIR-300 with dd-wrt firmware before but I always got disconnected form PSN & during online play. So if possible go with linksys WAG200G guys

Anybody can help me?

Not sure bout that model, but the model I'm using, SMCWBR14-G, is a pain in the ass. Sometimes can connect, sometimes disconnect
I'd say don't use SMC. I palang SMC now...

Mine use D-Link DSL-500G ADSL Router.

Hi my bro recommend me to get this

Aztech
ADSL2/2+ Wireless G++ 4-Port Router 5 in 1 gateway

is this good?

my linksys ag241 modem router is doing a good job.

Noob here...

Just asking router DLink DIR300 is perfect with PS3 and no disconnected from PSN & during online play.? Just found at the market this router are cheaper compare other like Linksys and Belkin.

Like said if we flash to firmware dd-wrt modded firmware isn't warranty void?

most stock router given by isp is usable, high-end ones works better
but no point of having good hardware bundled with sucky net connection
these couple of days is like a mass massacre i tell ya.
can't even conenct to the PSN for more than an hour

using CNet brand here...so far so good...

i'm using that cheapo wireless DIR300 router with streamyx bundle modem ZTE831, so far no problem... always online COD4 with fellow LYN here..
