When I run speedtest.net on on my PC and and Iphone (on wireless network) 12-16mbps download and 3-5mbps upload. However, when I run the "Test Connection" on my PS3 I get 3mbps upload and 1mbps download. Is this pretty standard or is there something wrong? What kind of uploads and downloads do you guys get when you run the test?

Doesn't sound right. I get the same download and upload speeds as I do for my computer, so I'm not sure what is wrong in your situation.

Are you using wireless on your PS3? Same thing happened with me, then I switched to ethernet and was getting full speed again. I really don't know why that is.

Wireless just takes more download and cuts down the speed? I really don't know. TC you can try using an ethernet cable to see if that works.

My PS3 is too far from my modem to use a wired connection. What results are you guys getting using the "Test Connection" on a wireless setup?

I dont get the PS3 sometimes. At times my download speed with Ethernet is fantastic, sometimes its slow. Sometimes with Wi Fi its nearly as fast as Ethernet, fluctuates alot.
