(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello Its Foolness. I recently Obtained a problem as I moved my ps3 into the basement and directly connected it to the router instead of through a cat 5 wall jack.
Problem: My lag switch says ethernet cable is not connected right away when i fly the switch EVEN WHEN I HAVE IT 100ft away using 2 50ft ethernet cables linked with a coupler
Works when: I hook it up into my modem
Reason I can't have this: I cannot be distrubing the whole internet connection through my house seeing as some people are doing important things on the internet, Also because I am too far away.

Solution: I need a way to make it work so I can hook it up to my router and it still work IF IT IS SOME SETTINGS I NEED TO CHANGE WITH MY ROUTER OR ANYTHING PLEASE HELP

hook it up to the cable going from your modem to your router. also, have you tried this: You must login or register to view this content.?

I have all that Im ganna try the 10 full instead of half maybe that will work i saw it posted somewhere other then that it ONLY works connected to modem router plug

Its so easy

Use a network splitter.Your console will notice the power loss in the Ethernet cable if you use the switch directly attached to the console and with power lose it will disconnect you.

With the network splitter you plug the switch between the router and network splitter and then put a Ethernet cable from you network splitter to console.

Network splitters are around £10 on ebay

Oh and long ethernet cable's do not work.The data travels so fast it will make no difference that is noticeable

Does the splitter have to be before or after the lag switch or does either work

After otherwise the console will notice the power change

Router(ethernet cable)Lag switch(Ethernet cable)Network splitter(ethernet cable)console


I use this one

Its a hub/switch.There not really called splitters but you get the idea.

Will this fix my too many cables too long problem

Problem: I have it set up like this

router-ethernet-coupler-ethernet-coupler-lagswitch-ethernet-ps3
IT DOESNT WORK
but if i have
router-ethernet-coupler-lagswitch-coupler-ethernet-ps3
IT WORKS
so will this allow me to hook up more wires cause otherwise it won't work because i need alot of cables to be able to reach my and my ps3

Not sure but i use a 20m cable from the router to lag switch and a 2m from the network hub into the console.Can't see why it would not.

okay, I'll try to get from walmart tommorow. How much lag time you get?

i can lag for 20-30seconds
