Funny you should mention it, for the last 2 nights ive noticed a slight dip in performance, ive been playing cod5 on the ps3.

Started getting really laggy at one point, and i noticed the router wireless light blinking dead regularly, even though nothing wireless was being used.

I rebooted just the router and all went back to normal.

I occasionally get the same probs as you, but normally if i,m hosting say a 3 player private match, i will stay at 4 bars, but if one of my friends host's he gets 4 bars and i get 3.

I always run a quick speed test actually on the ps3 before i go online with it, and last night it indicated my download was about 12000kbps, but after the reboot it shot back up again, to over 50,000kbps

wierd, maybe some gremlins had crawled up the ar5e of my router
