Here's my setup: Linksys WRT54G (ver. 2) router>>>WRE54G (ver. 1) range expander>>>PS3 + PSP

MAC filter on

Encryption enabled

SSID disabled

DHCP on

PS3 with latest update (2.01)

All wireless AP's with latest updates

When connected to my WRT54G, it never disconnects with signal strength of 64% - 82%, SSID disabled or enabled.

When connected to my Linksys WRE54G range expander, it is a different story. Signal strength to the expander is always 100%. However, with SSID disabled, it disconnects and reconnects about every 3-4 minutes. With SSID enabled, it never disconnects. I don't have any problems with disconnects on any other devices connected to the range expander whether SSID is enabled or disabled. Only the PS3 has problems with the WRE54G with SSID disabled. PSP, PC's and even Satellite DVR never disconnects. 

I tried changing to different channels but that didn't work.

My guess is possibly a compatibility issue with the PS3 and my range expander?

I would be curious if everyone who is having problems, to check your SSID if it's enabled/disabled, and try changing channels to see if that helps.

If you are having network disconnections, Its most likely a problem with your network (router). It maybe too weak or too far away. Time to upgrade your router.

only with Call of Duty 4.  I used to play resistance all the time using my linksys wireless N router and it was fine.  But with COD4 it disconnects almost everytime i play and its hard for me to get into games.  I think this is due to the game though and  a wireless connection would barely ever normally get disconnected.  I will have an 80% connection which is good and still get kicked out of the game.

same story here.

I cant stand it....

I'm running a WRT54G linksys wireless router.

My ISP is Comcast. PS3: 80gig

I used to connect wirelessly with my PS3 but the signal strength was too weak. So I acquired an ethernet cable and I am now directly connected to my router. I thought my problems were over...

As I continue to try and play COD4 online, I get booted off most of the time with an error message saying, "Connection Interrupted" while still playing the game. Then it boots me off to the lobby and another message will eventually come up saying, "You have been signed out of the playstation network, etc..." and then I'll have to sign in again.

I've also noticed that when it's very late at night (2:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m.) I can play several games straight without getting a disconnect. But that made sense with my wireless connection because the signal would strengthen late at night when no-one else is on, so the internet activity would be down therefore allowing me to play longer without disconnects.

But I have an ethernet cable now and at night I think its worse... For example, (Last night I was playing late at night with an ethernet connection and it would continue to boot me off, so I went back and set up a wireless connection to see if it was any better. Wouldn't you know it, the wireless connection at night was much better. No disconnects!

Anyways, I don't think I should still continue to have problems with "Connection Interrupted" with an ethernet cable connection.

Yea I'm having the same issues as you guys are with disconnects. I've tried to troubleshoot through the linksys forums and sonys forums, but so far I haven't come across any solutions.

Does anyone have any suggestions, advice, or solutions for my problem?

Thanks
