PS3 connection is super fast! o______o)

Archive: 4 posts


i've had a few different computers/laptops over the years, but my ps3 has the fastest connection i've ever seen :o It connects (while browsing web) to a page in a few seconds or less. Why is this? my ps3 model is the first ever model that came out. Im just intrigued because my laptop is meant to have a very fast "airport" connection, but my ps3 (that is years older than my laptop) is faster o_0

Edit: P.S i've only been connected to the web through my PS3 for around 6 months

Yeah, its pretty fast indeed, a little technical difficulties here and there, but its pretty good overall.

Well if you are connecting via a network then the connection to the network will most likely have no effect on you browsing speed. The bottleneck in traffic would be on the network-internet connection.

What I guess you have is a comparatively low-specced laptop, running a resource hungry modern OS, a browser and all sorts of background tasks VS a comparitively high specced PS3 with a very lightweight OS running a browser. It's probably packet processing and rendering causing the difference you see.

That's my guess. Not even sure if that will make sense...
