I have a wireless N router and a ps3 that uses a wireless G NIC or chip on the motherboard w/e. I know the psn server is pretty slow, but could the wireless card be a factor, my room is surrounded by aluminum "studs" and that can create interference. Seeing that wireless is half duplex, will running cat6 or 5e to my ps3 greatly increase the ping and bandwidth potential. (125 feet of cat6 is like 30 and i will connect my laptop via a switch.
Im assuming theres alot of latency, due to 5 laptops an ipad and 3 ipods on the same router, plus im only getting a 50% signal according to my ps3. also games such as mw2, black ops etc use, peer to peer hosting or something similar...some peers are mostly local so pinging psn server is something different altogether lol. sorry for being confusing its 2am
to clarify, a low latency from a router to a node will decrease ping time or have little effect, regardless of what i am pinging?
