Is there any way to boost the signal from My router? so my ps3 can get on my wifi?

My playstation 3 used to connect to My internet fine and dandy, now  dont know what happened but My ps3 can't connect anymore, it says that the signal strength is 100% but I can't get onto it anymore and its very irritating, if anybody has any solutions or any tips at all that could help me, I would be forever grateful. Thank you

Ignore the signal strength indicator on the PS3.  It is completely inaccurate.  You can boost the Wi-Fi signal if needed using a Wi-Fi Extender, which you can find at any Best Buy store, or most other retailers that sell home / small office networking hardware.  It basically sits somewhere between your router and PS3, and retransmits all of the Wi-Fi signals that it receives.
