usaweapon777 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 okay well after having horrible satellite internet for ages..... my neigbor somehow got dsll.... which for some reason unknown to me i still cant get. So i cut him a deal of paying for his internet if he let his router on... i kinda made a wifi dish and now have the signal from a half mile away. the connection isnt super strong but downloading files and surfing the web are fine on the pcs... now i have the internet from the usb going to a laptop and then a bridged connection to the router in my home. The problem is when i game itll will work fine for 5 minutes of soo and then disconnect and log me out of psn... it then takes like 5 minutes before it lets me sign in again. im just wondering who's router is causing the issue or what else could it be? i have a linksys wrt54g and my neighbor has some netgear. I know this could have multiple issues but any help is appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_bowtie Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 correct you cant have two routers on the same line with DHCP enabled for both....you need to replace one of the routers with a switch...or run the router as a switch.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
usaweapon777 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) okay but then why does it work just not for a long period of time... and the computers at my house never lose signal or get disconnected just my ps3 when i game........

His router is running as an AP so it's like a wireless switch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
