I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for things I can try. I have Comcast High Speed internet but I am constantly having troubles with it. Right now my laptop and PS3 are in the same room but my PS3 can't get a signal from my router. Anyone know why?

Well, your question is fairly vague, and i admitedly don't know too much about this type of stuff, but by can't get a signal, does that mean that the network doesn't even show up in your ps3, or that the signal quality is basically zero? (i would guess its the former). Also, you didn't explicitly say it, but your laptop in the same position (distance) from your ps3 DOES get signal then? Have you at least tried moving your ps3 around? (almost completely doubt that it would fix it, but might as well try the obvious stuff before putting more effort into it)

It's vague cause I have no idea either haha.

1. Yes I mean the network doesn't even show up.
2. Laptop is basically right next to the PS3. My laptop is on the floor next to it while the PS3 is on a table right next to it.
3. I tried moving it around but no go.

Post more details please. How long has this been happening? Have you always had Comcast? If so did it work before? Have you always had the same router? Have you ever gotten it to work with your current router before? Did it suddenly just stop picking up the signal when you didn't change anything? I don't know what kind of wireless data standards PS3s can pick up. Perhaps your PS3 isn't compatible with the wi-fi signals your router sends out.

1) This started happening a little while ago, I can't remember an exact time frame but it's been a problem.

2) I've always had Comcast

3) It worked on and off but now it doesn't work at all.

4) I used to have an older router and I did not get any wireless signal at all from it. When I switched to a new router I was able to get a wireless signal on both my laptop and PS3. After a while my PS3 stopped getting a signal from it even though I did not change anything.

It sounds to me like the PS3's integrated wireless network interface card is the problem. If it was working before wireless standard compatibility shouldn't be the problem, and if your laptop still picks up the signal and you haven't change any settings(assuming no one else did either) the problem is most likely on your PS3's end. As far as I know there is nothing Comcast can really do that would prevent you from at least seeing the wireless signal from your router. I would take it to a friends place who has wireless internet and see if you can pick up his signal.

Some wireless routers allow you to set the power to the signal. Mine was standard set to 30 procent power output. You could try boost that up. This could cause troubles maybe for neabures since it could cause some interference.
