Get a longer cord between switch and ps3 leukotic want to pm me it? It's worth a try, I won't share if you want. If you do not want to tell me its ok. Elim get a LONG cord so that you have it going to where you are then back to router

To be honest, it's not mine to share. If Cyndicate gave the ok to tell others, or if he did himself, then it would be fair game... But we had a discussion a while back about patenting. He has done a lot of things over the years that have been stolen by other people and those people claimed they were the ones to figure it out, from what I gather about him...this is his biggest issue. I am not sure what his status is on giving up the secret of the 'real' lag switch is, but I am sure he wants full credit for it, which is why I am mentioning his name here. If I go and start telling people, before you know it the original roots of the invention will be lost and he probably wouldn't be able to prove it as his own.

If you like I can PM you his site and you can probably contact him directly. I personally haven't talked to him for almost a year now, and if this lag method is still not out in the public yet...then that means he hasn't told many other people about it or just doesn't want it released.

So you have one of those dual-routers where its a modem and router in one? Sadly, based on my own experience, there isn't much you can do besides what foolness mentioned, but even that will be very minor lag increase if anything at all. The absolute key with lag is doing it behind a router, because when you sever the connection in front of the router, it drops the PS3's IP to protect the rest of the network, which means you lose connection to the PSN. When its done behind the router, the IP is left in tact (for longer at least) and lets you do a little more before the PS3 (or router) realize something isn't right.

Man...I keep flip flopping between this thread and the one you made, not sure whether to post it here or in your thread Happy


One thing you can do is go for a router-to-router setup. In fact this is what I am going to attempt to do. Basically I am placing a router in front of the other router, which is possible as long as the router in front can handle and publish DHCP and the IP for your PS3.

It's kinda hard to explain, but do a search for 'router to router' on google, you will get some helpful answers. If you can successfully do this, the router you place in front of the other router would work great. Here is what I mean.

Router/modem combo ----->(LgSwt)--> router ------> PS3

Instead of what you were doing

Router/modem combo ----->(LgSwt)--> PS3

Should work pretty well as long as the router in front (that's directly feeding your PS3) is the one responsible for giving your PS3 a IP rather than just being a switch.

EDIT: BTW, don't do another dual router/modem, just use another router.

I doubt it, I am not 100% sure, but the modem probably wasn't designed to work like that. Far as I know, a modem doesn't assign IP's, my guess is the best it will be able to do is act like a splitter. Which doesn't do what you want it to do in this situation.

You can get a pretty cheap router on Newegg for something like $25.

Yeah, I am not too sure if I am going to have any sucess with the router to router. But it's worth a try and if it doesn't work I will have myself a pretty nice router to use later whenever I need it. Smile

I will post back here later with my results.
