Slow playstaion hardwired connection

 I have Verizon FiOS with 25Mbps download and 25 Mbps Upload service. The speed to my laptop is always excellent, and when cross referenced on bandwithplace.com, speedtest.net etc always gives excellent results. However, I have been having problems with my playstaion 3. I have the ps3 hardwired in to my actiontec router but the online gaming really slows down a lot sometimes, and whenever it slows down and I do an internet connection test on the playstation 3's innate speed test or on the PS3s browser, my speed results can be anywhere from 800kbps download to maybe 4 or 5 Mbps Upload. Again, at other times the speed will be solid at 19-23Mbps and the online gaming is fine.
I've tried the following:
-turning off all other internet devices (cell phones, laptops etc)
-changing the ethernet cord connecting the ps3 to the actiontec
-creating a static IP for the ps3 and going into the router settings and entering that under "DMZ" and apply the settings
-bought a Netgear N600 router, connected the ps3 to the netgear and the netgear then to the actiontec
I'm out of ideas. I even bought 2 new playstation 3s thinking it was the playstation. There must be a way to get a more stable and faster speeds. ANy help would be greatly appreciated.

I saw this same post over at
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r26948912-Verizon-FioS-and-Playstaion-3-issues
Another user has the same speed but not this issue.
I wonder if your issue has something to deal with the NAT table size of the router.

  • Do i have to hardwire connect the Time Capsule to my router?

    do i have to hardwire connect the Time Capsule to my router?
    My plan was to just add it to my wireless network and keep it for security away from my mac and in a completely different part of the house.

    You can but it is a NOT recommended method.. it will be slow and unreliable.

  • Airport Extreme Base Station - Wireless AND Hardwired connections

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station. I am under the impression that I can connect a hardwire via ethernet to my iMac, as well as use my wireless connections on my iBook. I am connected to the internet via my local Comcast Cable system on a SurfBoard SB4100 modem. I have one Ethernet port on the back of the Base Station connected to a Farallon iPrint Adapter for my antiquated (yet far more reliable than ANY injet I've owned) laser toner printer. I have a McAlly 5-port ethernet hub. I have a variety of ethernet cables, some with 8 wire connections, some with 4 wire connections. (Currently a 4-wire cable connects from the base station to the iPrint adapter) My total system has been dismantled for some time and I have been sailing through with the wireless connection on my iBook. But now I have a need to have both computers attached to the internet. I would rather have the hardwire connection and the wireless at the same time - if possible. The iMac is still on system 9 (stop laughing!) and I cannot afford to upgrade to 10 at this time.
    Can anyone help me?

    I am under the impression that I can connect a hardwire via ethernet to my iMac, as well as use my wireless connections on my iBook.
    Yes that is possible.
    Insert the Ethernet hub between the Farallon iPrint Adapter and AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).

  • IPad slow in re-connecting to a known WiFi network

    Hi all,
    I have noticed that my iPad is sometimes slow in re-connecting to a known wi-fi network (my home network).
    I have been doing some online research and it seems like it's an issue apple acknowledged.
    Normally it connects right away, other times it takes about 4-5 seconds.
    In rare occasions it takes up to a minute...
    Is this normal?
    Message was edited by: renzopanta

    The only times mine does not instant connect is when it has been away from the network for a period of time...and then it seems like only a second or two. Safari opens immediately but mail can take several seconds to figure out the connection. If I stay within the router signal, and sleep the iPad, when it wakes it is on the network with no delay.
    Hope this helps.

  • Hardwired connection lost???

    I am trying to sync my iPad Air (iOS 7.1.2) to iTunes 12.0.1.26 (Retina MB Pro, OSX Yosemite 10.10), but I get the message "The iPad could not be synced because the connection to iPad was lost." This is with a hard USB connection to the computer, and Wifi Sync disabled.  Anyone else had this happen?  The sync appears to run to the end, then the failure message appears.
    The same thing happens with my iPhone (5S, 7.1.2). Also a hardwired connection.
    Also, the capacity calculation at the bottom of the iTunes window is wildly wrong on the iPad (but not for the iPhone).
    Planning to update to 8.1 today, but I want to get a good sync of both devices first.  Even though the syncs (apparently) failed, iTunes says that each device backed up successfully.  That may have to do before the update.

    Unfortunately, the power supply section of the Time Capsule has likely failed.
    If you have an Apple store in your area, you should take it to them to let them have a look and discuss your options.
    Otherwise, contact Apple directly at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    If you happen to have AppleCare on one of your Macs, it's possible that the Time Capsule might be covered.
    If it's not....Apple won't be of any help since they do not offer repairs. You can refer to the list of Time Capsule repair shops provided by forum expert LaPastenague.

  • E1200 wireless works great, but needing another wireless router to hardwire connect to AVR

    I have an e1200 Linksys router hooked up and working well, a wired connection to my first computer a wireless connection to my second (laptop) in the basemen and to my HDTV. My question is what Linksys device would I need to enable me to get a wireless connection in the basement to then hardwire connections to my Blue-Ray player and my HK AVR-3650. Any advise would be a great help as in I have no clue on what I need, but again I would like to somehow take a wireless signal from one wireless router to another to then have wired connections from both wireless routers. Also, was the e1200 not the right router or can I still make something out of it? Thanks in advance - Ohio

    Aside from powerline adapters, you may consider as well WES610N. It is a wireless switch that you can connect to your home/main router to extend your existing network wired and wirelessly. It has 4 ethernet ports on the back for you to connect your wired devices to your network. For more information about this device, refer to these links: Expanding your home network using a WES610N Dual-Band N Entertainment Bridge, Linksys WES610N Frequently Asked Questions.

    dovdov2,
    are you saying that when you connect your MacBook Pro to a monitor, your Internet connection slows down, but when you disconnect the monitor, it speeds up again, and that this is reproducible from one day to another?
    Does this happen both under OS X and under Windows 7, or only under one of them?
    How are you currently connecting your MacBook Pro to your monitor?

  • Can others on a shared wi-fi slow down my connection or block my connection with software or special hardware?

    Hi, Can others on a shared wi-fi slow down my connection or block my connection with software or special hardware?  My connection has been very spotty and many times cuts off.  The router is in our upstairs living room only 70 feet from my room, but it just seems like recent connections have been horrible.  Also, I noticed the following image when trying to access the apple webpage.  Anyone know what that might be?  It's not the usual apple icon next to the address.
    thanks
    Dave

    Welcome,
    Indeed, by definition other users would "share" the bandwith and hence slow you down - but not cut you off.
    More likely is that there are other devices (e.g. cordless phones) are causing interference. You don't specify which AP you have but if it an 802.11n one you should get better reception as the 5GHz range does get so much interference.
    Try utilities like NetSpot or iStumbler to see what's in range.
    The icon on the web page is probably something else not related to WiFi

    Shawn

  • Can the wireless card in my mac wear out and slow down internet connection??

    can the wireless card in my mac wear out and slow down internet connection??

    Yes the WiFi card can wear out but not what you would really call wearing out like a pair of pants do. It can start to fail causing the connection between your computer and your Wifi router to slow down, IE transmit and receive less data in a given time period. And then it will fail completely.
    But as to your internet connection being affected by a failing WiFi card no that can't happen.
    If you turn the WiFi off and connect the computer to your router with an Ethernet cable does your internet browsing and downloading speed increase? If it does then there may be something wrong with the WiFi card in your computer or the WiFi section of your router. Hard to say which.
    If after connecting the computer to your router with an Ethernet cable and your speeds do not increase then it is a problem with the router or on your ISPs end.

  • Connect Eternet Switch (for hardwired connections) AND WRT54G2 to WET610N

    Hello,
    In my main office, I have a cable modem which is connected to my main E4200 router. All of my equipment (except my Ooma) is served by the E4200. The E4200 broadcasts a wireless network.
    In my basement, I have a Wii / entertainment center. The E4200 signal from upstairs isn't strong enough to stream video.
    I bought the WET610N and have successfully set it up to interact with the E4200 wirelss network. I can hardwire my laptop to the WET610N and verify the internet works great.
    However, the Wii must connect over wireless. I have other equipment in the basement which would benefit from an internet connection. So, I want to A) connect the ESXS88W 10/100 8-port workgroup switch I have to the WET610N *AND* also broadcast a wireless signal in my basement (assuming the wireless network I see in the basement is the same "old" one from upstairs which has not benefited from the WET610N).
    How can I set up my WRT54G2 to broadcast a wireless signal in the basement so that it leverages the E4200 signal served by the WET610N, while also having the workgroup switch offer hardwired connections to my other equipment (like Dish Network receiver)? It doesn't seem to work by just plugging the WRT54G2 into the workgroup switch.
    Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    if i'm correct, your setup looks like this:
    E4200 ( ( ( ) ) ) WET610N-----EZXS88W
    *wireless connection indicated by parentheses and wired connection indicatd by dashes
    if you want to connect a WRT54G2 to broadcast a wireless network in your basement, you'll have to connect this router (using port 1,2,3 or 4) to your switch. you'll have to change the WRT54G2's IP address to 192.168.1.2 so that it doesnt conflict with the E4200; then disable its DHCP server (since the E4200 is already the DHCP server).
    that should do it.

  • Internet speed slows down when connected via airport express

    Internet speed slows down when connecting via airport express. When connecting directly via the timecapsulethe internet speed is ok, when connecting via the airport express the speed slows down.What can I do to change that? Any suggestions?

    Turn off the AirPort Express completely as a test, and move your computer very close to the location of the Express.
    As I said before, the Express can only extend the bandwidth (speed) that it receives from the Time Capsule, so the speed that you see there with the Express powered off will be the fastest speed of which the Express is capable.
    The Express will make the signal go further when it extends....but it will not make the signal go faster.
    A good location for a device that extends wirelessly is a point that is about half the distance from the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage.
    If you locate the AirPort Express too far from the Time Capsule or there are more than a couple of walls in the signal path, the signal will be very slow by the time that it reaches the Express....and the Express simply extends a signal that has already slowed down significantly.
    If you already have the Express located about half the distance between the Time Capsule and general area that needs more wireless coverage, how many walls, ceilings or other obstructions are there in the signal path between the Time Capsule, the AirPort Express and the area that needs more coverage?
    Often, due to obstructions, it is just not possible to achieve good performance when you try to extend a network wirelessly. The solution is connect the AirPort Express to the Time Capsule using a wired Ethernet connection.
    There is virtually no signal loss with this type of connection, so the Express can be located exactly where it is needed and it will produce a much faster wireless signal in this type of setup.

  • Slow Wi-Fi connection with both Extreme and Express

    Hi all,
    I have problems with slow Wi-Fi connection at home. With my 100/100 Mbit/s fiber I have an Airport Extreme 802.11ac connected by Ethernet cable directly into the cable modem.
    With only the Extreme as a router I was not satisfied with the Wi-Fi range and therefore also bought an Airport Express 802.11n (2nd generation ) to extend the network with.
    The range got better but I'm facing real slow Wi-Fi connection both on the Extreme and the Express.
    Example - When connected to the Extreme less than 1 meter from it I normally get a down speed on 30 Mbit/s and on the Express (placed 8 meters from the Extreme) I normally get between 2 to 8 Mbit/s down speed.
    I have a couple of questions about this issue below that I hope someone can answer.
    1. The Extreme and the Express are connected wireless. If I connect them together with cable instead, will I then get the same speed from the Express that I have on the Extreme?
    2. I've read in several forums that the latest versions on the Extreme and Express causes bad Wi-Fi connections and an downgrade to earlier version is recommended. My problem is that Airport Utility only can find the latest versions when trying to downgrade (bought both of them recently).
    How can I downgrade to earlier versions when Airport Utility can't find them? If possible, is this still recommended to do?
    Current versions:
    Extreme - 7.7.3
    Express - 7.6.4
    3. Could it cause problems if the Extreme and Express doesn't have the same versions, or is this normal?
    4. Any suggestions to improve the down speed on my Wi-Fi connection?
    Thanks in advance!

    1. Cable connections are always better.
    But test first.. turn off the express.. reboot or even factory reset the extreme and have another go with it.
    On a computer plugged in by ethernet test the speed.. wireless should be off..
    So the most important thing is .. do you get full speed by ethernet.. if not you will never get it by wireless.. always less.. and sometimes much less.
    2. You cannot downgrade either of those models. So you are stuck with them as is..
    3. I think wireless links are always problematic.. by the very nature of the beast you will drop your speed by half.. so if the links were perfect.. and the Extreme wireless gives you 30Mbit then the best the express could ever give you is 15Mbit.. it is the nature of wireless.
    4. Yes.. we can make suggestions.
    But give me the pure wired network speed first. If that is low then tell me what modem you are using, which you mentioned.. normally a fibre system has no modem just a fibre converter to ethernet called ONT. Optical Network Terminal

  • Slow and dropping connection WRT300n v 2/WMP300 v 2

    Slow an dropping connections on WRT300n v 2/WMP300 v 2 updated with latest firmware/driver.
    Before update it gave a speed of 3-4 mbit/s and after update about 30 mbit/s, this is just a bit better(10-13%) than the D-link products (604/AP2000+/DWL-G510) i intended too let go of old age.
    For E-mail and surfing the web this speed is ok, but sharing files and use a mediacenter its not ok.
    Next problem is that after about 30-40 min of full load the router just dropps all connections and reboots or what ever.
    The Linksys products WRT300N/WMP300 is not a what a expected it too be
