Just ran into this, so I don't know if you fixed yet or not, but try turning off "Media Discovery" or whatever it's called. In network settings, you'll find it enabled. I believe that fixed it for some people. Seems to happen mostly on Linksys and Netgear. Fun stuff!

Cool! I heard some people were having problems even adding it to the DMZ... Right now my PS3 is hijacking someone else's "LINKSYS" wireless connnection becuase my old D-Link is....old.

Any ways, glad you figured it out!

thanks man... so far though i still like my xbox360 online much much better. but have the ps3 online is free

i hook up my 360 and ps3 to the router, I don't use the wireless router for them. I don't want to be playing a game online and then get dropped because my router dropped me. The only thing I use my wireless router for is my computer.
