    Mine won't even connect with an ethernet cable, it doesn't recognise it at all.

    It picked up the wifi for about 10 seconds yesterday, then lost it again.

    Im having the same issue, my original fat 60gb ps3 wont see wifi networks most of time now, and ethernet doesnt work.
    If i do a reset, I can see the wifi network enough to connect to it, but then it keeps dropping.

    Same problem here also, since I moved house and ISP a few months ago. Really irritating :mad:. I'm also using a ZxYEL router.

    Would be interested in hearing if changing the router would solve the problems! I searched for threads on the subject and there is plenty of info on line but still dont know?
    Any Digiweb customers out there that use a different router than ZyXEL and have joy connecting wirelessly?

    Well to get it out there, my modem is a zyxel p6600 hn-t1a ( i think from memory) and my connection is with magnet. Have some other modems at home, so may try another one with magnet settings to see if it improves.

    Let us know how it goes. I'm with Magnet as well, so would be very interested in hearing if you manage to sort it out.

    Lads, if there are many wireless connestions around your area then all will be running on similar channels. I have encountered this numerous times with the PS3 for some strange reason, go into the routers settings and where it has your SSID and all that there will be an option to change channels. Place it on Channel 11 (or higher) and see if that helps.

    Just to close this off, i tried loads of different things with the zyxel, different wifi channels etc, got nowhere. Changed modem and worked straight away.

    And so we roll on lol! I rang digiweb just to see if they would send a d-link, for free! They did, very nice of them but it was a broken one so another 45 mins on the phone and they agreed to send another one.

    Only this time its a Thompson Technicolor TG582N.......

    Im not even going to bother trying. If anybody out there has any previous with one of these please feel free to let me know if i should try it or not. Im all out of patience haha!

    Probably have to buy one, and bets are that wont work either.....:(

    hi - i have been having the same problem, is the solution just to get a new router? Any suggestions?
    Other WiFi enabled devices like iPads and iPhones also need to be reset when they are unlocked and connect to the wireless... Seems Zyxel routers are just a pile of ****

    Yes new router will work. Im with digiweb and they sent out 2 routers to me. 1st was broke but second worked no problem So dont buy one, ring your provider and get them to send a different type. The problem is with the Zyxel router.
