depending on which Ps3 i use I get between 40 and 60mb download one wired two are wireless. and that with two laptops online at the same time.

 


 

 

This shows to the OP that it's not the PS3 or PSN at fault or we would all be capped at low speeds lol. Maybe setting his network up from the beginning could help. He might have some conflicts? Who knows.

Opinions are a great thing....

I'd agree with you if it wasn't for the fact they have the worst traffic management policy known to man.

Indeed they are.

 

Traffic management doesn't affect me at the moment.

 

Maybe once it does my opinion of them will change.

i get full speed on the ps3 and the pc.

I have the latest version of the hub (there are 2 versions and one doesn't support more than 50mb).

 

There is no limit on the psn, these people don't know what they are talking about (ignore them, useless).

 

Just double check which hub you have, ask virgin to send you a new one.

Try and go wired if you can - it's just better and more stable all round.

Wireless is cool etc, but there are many interference factors.

I know exactly what I'm talking about - and Virgin traffic shape their ports.
