In other news i have had problems with PS3 on COD, joining parties mainly, i removed the router last night and directly connected with no problems at all. I think i might power up my old Linksys router later as the Netgear doesn't seem to be working 100%.
Ah right southwell, i was under the impression that the yellow ethernet was wired slightly differently, my apologies

initially i had loads of problems with the connection through the vm supplied but now its absoluteley spot on, as i did the port forwarding (not triggering), assigned ip addresses to all appliances, opened nat and lowered mtu to 1400 on the router and dissabled the spi firewall.

downloads always take less than 10 mins, and the gameplay online is absoluteley fantastic.

I played all night last night on cod5 and kicked butt all night, whereas before the connection on the ps3 was almost unplayable on cod5.

Initially i did what you did and tried it directly through the modem, and the difference was staggering, so i knew the router was the problem, thankfully thats set up now, and working a dream, and the connection on the ps3 is better than my xbox.
