PS3 Wireless connection?

[Bofa_deez]

Alright, just got a PS3. But wireless is being weird! It keeps saying that "key information exchange timed out" even thought I have 90% signal strength from my wireless router! Any ideas? Anything would be helpful from the guys and gals at TG! Thanks!

First of all, I am no expert. But I also had some issues with my wireless connection with my PS3. I had to set a static IP address for my PS3 and also do some port forwarding in my router. It sounds like you have entered your wireless security encryption key wrong in the PS3 wireless setup. Could be alot of things actually. Best to just start researching it online. This link is kind of old but it may help you.

I already had a static IP already set up and ports forwarded for torrent use but I had to manually enter my encryption key. BTW for some strange reason I could only use the 64-bit 10-key encryption code, anything higher it kept stating I was entering the wrong security key, even after numerous attempts.
Don't use the software that you may have with your router, try going straight to the web site and logging in as well, you may have better results, that is something else I had to do. I also could not get the router to recognize the PS3 by doing the automatic search, everythign had to be done manually.
