ok, hope the title got your attention, so......

While watching video on my PS3 (Streaming from my PC), I get about 5 minutes in and BOOM! my wireless goes down, and when i say it goes down i mean everything wireless enabled in my house loses connection, Ipad, PC, Mobile Phone, everything, i go down to my router, and it doesnt indicate anything is wrong, i turn it off, wait 3 minutes, turn it back on and everything is fine again, it only happens when i watch videos through my PS3 or Xbox 360, i can play online fine throughboth consoles, i can "AirPlay" through my ipad no problem etc etc, only whilst watching vids through my ps3 or xbox 360 from my pc does the connection drops, and it happens 99% of the time.

I've tried updating drivers, oving the ps3 and xbox 360 closer to the router etc etc. but i dont see how everything works fine on all devices untill i start streaming video to a console.

maybe its the shitty BT Broadband Router :(

well, any help is appreciated, and if ya need more info just ask :)

Yeah, it sounds like your router, try a factory reset first and if that doesnt help test a new router. May also be worth your whilst trying different wifi channels.

Did you get this sorted? I have an identical problem. My PS3 is connected to the hub through ethernet as it's next to it. However the connection keeps dropping everywhere else in the house when the PS3 is on. When I turn off the PS3 everything is fine and it was always fine before christmas when we got the ps3, I wouldn't have thought it was the hub.
