PS3 80GB Wireless Connection Help

We are struggling to get our 80GB PS3 to wirelessly connect to our Wireless-G Router.
It is set up using a WPA Security. Some one please help! We have done custom set up and put in our IP addresses on our on and we have done easy! The only way we can think of to make it easier is to take the security code off and have an unsecured network, and I do not want to do that.
Please help before I break my ps3 or my router LOL

WRT54GL - just today it won't keep wired/wireless connections HELP Please

This router is less that a year old and just today it won't keep wired/wireless connections unless I reset the router and sometimes within 5 mins of a reset, it's out again. I can go into the Admin/Status page of the router and DCHP release/renew the IP from Cox and that works the same as a reset of the modem.
Can anyone give me an idea what this could be? Cox looked at the Motorola modem and saw that it was connected for 3 hrs (3 hrs prior I rebooted the modem thinking that was my issue) and they didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
I have the latest firmware installed.

Are you using any peer-to-peer (P2P) software? If so, this is a known cause for router slow downs and disconnections. Go into the P2P software, and reduce the number of connections that the software can make.

PS3's wireless connection reseting router. Help!

Alright, I have a WRT54G, and I have been using it for probably a year or so with no problems. That is, until we got a PS3 not too long ago. Now whenever someone goes online with it, it will cause the router to reset. Or at least that's what I think it's doing, as it will drop all connections and take about 15 seconds to reestablish. This really hurts as I'm usually online on my PC via a wired connection. Seeing as this happens multiple times when someone is using the PS3, I am about to pull my hair out. I can't possibly think of what is causing this, so I'm begging for help. If you all need any information beyond what I've listed, please let me know. It's almost impossible to get any work done with people using it. Thanks.

Hi,
Check the firmware of your router, if not latest, download and install latest firmware from www.linksys.com/download
Check if you are entering the security key and key type on your PS3. It should be matching with routers security type and key.
Also you might need to assign static ip address on PS3 and forward ports used by PS3 to static IP address of PS3 on routers firewall.
Ports used by PS3:
udp 3478
udp 3479
udp 3658
tcp.domain (port 53)
udp.domain (port 53)
tcp.http (port 80)
tcp.https (port 443)
udp.ssdp (port 1900)
tcp.amandaBackupInitiation (10080)
tcp.Jabber SSL/TLS (port 5223)
tcp.10075
tcp.10078
tcp.10079
& it will definately work!!!

Windows 8 wireless connection help

I have just bought a new windows 8 system (HP 2000) and I am having problems connecting to my home wi-fi. This PC and all others that are using this network have a security of Shared and a WEP encryption. this new pc has no Shared option. No other options
work to connect.
Thanks.

I would like to suggest the following:
Please check if the computer can connect to other wireless network or try other encryption methods such as WPA2.
Check if other Windows 8 computer can access the wireless network.
Update the wireless network adapter.
In addition, please check the issue referring to the following documents:
Wired and wireless network problems
Nicholas - Your answer doesn't address the issue that WEP doesn't appear to be supported in Windows 8. Yes, we know WEP isn't terribly secure, and we should really be using WPA2. However, if you are not the network administrator or are
unable to change the security due a legacy device which doesn't support WPA, one would think Windows 8 would retain compatibility.
What HilowB52 is requesting, and what I would like to know as well, is a work around to enable a Windows 8 PC to connect via wireless using WEP encryption.
Best Regards,

The specifications for your unit clearly indicate it is not wifi enabled. What gave you the impression it's wireless?

PS3 and wireless connectivity issue

I apologize ahead of time for what I am sure is a repeat question.
I am operating with Windows 7, a Linxsys WRT 400N router connected to a Comcast cable modem. The PS3 gets all the way to the end of the set-up and during the check it fails and states "the key information timed out". I am getting a 95% reading during the process but not hooking up. So far I have, disconnected the router and modem and reset the PS3 to original settings. I have been trying the easy walk through on the PS3. WPA encryption on the router.
Advice please.
Thanks,
Rob

Ah, I simply fixed it by compiling the driver from source and installing it in that fashion. Everything is good.

Not the average problem with wireless connection. Please help me..

I've been having wireless connection problems ever since I upgraded to Verizon FiOS from Verizon Wireless. Before upgrading to Verizon FiOS in the fall of 2012, my brother's laptop connected just fine with the connection. After upgrading to Verizon FiOS, my brother's laptop could not connect to the internet. It showed the wireless connection signal as Excellent, but I could not access the internet. Either it would be extremely slow or there would be no connection at all. Also, the router would sometimes restart itself randomly, and it was extremely annoying for me since I am hardwired with my desktop.
This was weird because my iPod Touch connected perfectly fine to the wifi. So I thought it must be the laptop. But I brought the laptop over to my cousin's house, who also happens to have Verizon FiOS, and the laptop connected perfectly fine. I called Verizon and none of the technicians knew what the problem was. We tried disabling and enabling the router, changing the channels, and anything that was on the list. They couldn't help me and I was extremely disappointed because not only am I not accessing the internet with my brother's laptop, but I am also paying for the service too. The last technician I called in 2012 decided to send me a new router. I hoped this would work, but it did not. This router, too, would completely reset itself numerous times before settling down and letting me use the internet.
I gave up after that. But in the spring of 2013, I got really fed up with the service I was receiving and I decided to call Verizon again. Again, Verizon tried to help me fix the laptop with their tools and solution guides. But nothing good came out of it, so I decided to ask for a technician to come to my apartment to fix it. We scheduled a day and I was pretty excited since I was almost positive that the connection for the laptop would be fine by then.
I was wrong. The technician came and only stayed for about 20 minutes. He said it must be the laptop or it must be that the walls are too thick in my apartment. But that can't be it since, in my cousin's house, the router is on the second floor and my brother was using his laptop on the first floor. So it couldn't be the laptop nor the house. So we came to no conclusion. He just attached a mini router to the laptop and hardwired it. I wasn't so content but I was glad my brother could finally use the internet now.
About three months pass by and I decide to get myself a new laptop. I get it and I am hoping the wireless connection works. It did, so I was almost positive that it was my brother's laptop that was the problem, not the wireless signal. I go on vacation for a few days and I connect perfectly fine at my friend's house. When I return home and try to connect to my wireless connection, it didn't work!
At this point, I am extremely frustrated. I decided to call Verizon again to replace my router because it was being extremely annoying. It kept resetting itself and I was tired of it. I replaced the router, and this is the router I currently have, but I STILL have the same problem. It resets itself on its own time and I hate it because I'm always in the middle of something. Wow, just wow. There is nothing they could do to help me fix this. I call up a technician, for the millionth time, and he tells me he can't access my router. This occurred with the previous technician who sent me the new router. He tells me his tools are not working and tells me he'll call me back the next day.
It was the next day and I did not receive any phone call. I am extremely disappointed in Verizon FiOS' service and it's customer service. I leave it alone and I just hardwire my laptop to the router. Of course this works, but what's the point of having a laptop when I have to keep it hardwired on my desk? After a day or two, I decide to check if the wireless connection works, and it did. I was surprised. But every now and then, it would shift on and off. Most of the time, the wireless connection is either EXREMELY SLOW or I get none at all, nonetheless, it still says the connection is Excellent.
Please, if there is anyone who could help or try to help me, I would most appreciate it. If there is more information that you need, ask me and I will try my best to provide it to you.

Admittedly, that IS a strange case. Unfortunately, it sounds like all possible troubleshooting has been done by the tech support agents. you mentioned that you were dissatisfied with your other service, did it have a similar problem? theres a possibility of dirty fiber or a bad ONT port, but the random rebooting of the router would almost exclusively be a bad router. question: is the router in the same location as before?

Officejet J6450 will NOT connect to laptop wirelessly - PLEASE HELP...

Good afternoon,
I just spent almost two hours on the phone with a woman from the HP Tech Support team that I could barely understand (not exaggerating - would be wonderful to bring back customer service to the US - god knows we need some more jobs here!!). She had me do a number of things, none of which solved my problem - needless to say, it was a very frustrating two hours and now I am very frustrated!
My issue is that my laptop will not recognize the wireless Officejet J6450. I have Comcast broadband cable internet, a Linksys wireless router, an HP desktop, and a Dell laptop (laptop is from employer - I work from home). I loaded all of the software on my desktop first (connected via USB) and everything worked perfectly. I used the Network Setup Wizard on the printer and connected to my Linksys wireless router with no issue whatsoever (full signal strength). I printed a wireless netwok report - no problems were found - all diagnostic tests were a success. The ethernet adapter wireless network connection IP address on my laptop is 192.168.1.102 and the IP address of the printer is 192.168.1.103. So then I proceeded to load the software to my laptop for wireless connection - thinking all along how easy getting everything set up has been. I then loaded the software to the laptop and I got to the part where it asks what type of connection I want to set up. I chose wireless and it asked me to temporarily plug the laptop to the printer via USB cable. I did so and it began searching for my wireless network. I selected my wireless network and it began searching for my printer. This is were I hit the brick wall - it could not find my printer. I tried again - chose my network, tried to find the printer - no such luck.
I then did a Google search and checked these boards regarding alternative solutions. I tried installing through Windows printers (BTW - laptop is running XP SP2). Selected Local Printer, unchecked the automatically select box, chose standard TCP/IP, etc. - that didn't work either.
I consider myself fairly PC savvy and I am perplexed by this - just doesn't make any sense why the laptop won't detect the wireless printer.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance regarding my connectivity issue as I do NOT want to call HP Tech Support back.
One other thing, the Tech Support lady told me to reset the printer by turning it off and then having me press the pound button and the number 6 before turning it back on. Not sure why she had me do this, but it reset the ink cartridges and alignment and now the printer no longer reports how much ink is left. Any way to fix that?
Lastly, out of curiosity, why does HP recommend not leaving the wireless enabled on the printer when not using it? Doesn't make any sense to have to turn off wireless everytime after printing and then turn it back on when needing to print again.
Sorry for this long post - hopefully this is enough information for you to help me out.
Thanks in advance!
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
First, I have no idea why we are recommending turning off the printer's radio when you are not using it. The only thing I can image is that if you leave the radio on and in its default configuration (SSID = hpsetup, no security, Ad-Hoc), then you are susceptible to neighbors or war-drivers using your printer.
Next, you have an interesting problem. You've done everything I would have tried (check connectivity by browsing the printer's internal web page, turn off the firewall, try to manually add the printer).
I know you've disabled the firewall. I might recommend uninstalling the firewall temporarily, then installing the SW again to see if that works. Also, you might check to see that you don't have another firewall accidentally enabled (maybe the Windows firewall?).
Finally -- is there anything unusual about your wireless-router configuration? Have you set any port-forwarding or other advanced settings? BTW -- what model wireless-router are you running?
And of course there's a rather painful step to try that usually works: reinstall the OS on your laptop and then install the printer SW (I'm somewhat embarrassed to suggest this but it does seem to work).

Reboot your router. You by chance dont have a netgear N300 WNR2000 router do you? I had one of those and would lose wifi on it constantly, Switched to a Cisco wifi router and it works much better.

My guess is that the security settings on your router and iPod do not match.
For a test, change your router so there is no security. See if you can connect and get to the Internet. If that works, set up the router with security and use the same settings for the iPod.

Don't shout...
Anyway,
Setup your wireless network like this
Router:
SSID: MYLAN
WPA/PSK: password
Connect PC to Wireless network using above credentals or plug it into the wired LAN
Connect HP Printer to wireless network
Uninstall whatever HP software you installed
Download new HP drivers/application from support.hp.com enter your model number in the search box to get the driver specific for your printer
Run the program you downloaded from HP and follow the instructions exactlly
Somewhere in the installer it will ask you if your printer is USB or Network (wired/wireless) select network.
hit next a lot of times, and with any luck it should work. If not, call a local computer repair company.
-Cheers
