I got, maybe, a tip for all you lag switchers! Buy a FOOT light switch. I have got one of those and when sitting on my gaming chair I just put my toe on it and I am able to press it rapidly when needed.

But off to where this topic is about.

My home situation!

I have cable internet.
My modem is also my router and provided by my ISP. It has got 4 lan ports and phone lines on it. I plugged a network power adapter (it puts your signal on your power lines in house) into the modem/router.

Upstairs I have another adapter plugged into a power socket and from there a cable with lag switch runs into my PS3. I do have a switch somewhere in my house.

But my question is. Players do not freeze, they just lag. Is this maybe due to the ethernet over powernetwork adapters? OR should I put a switch between the power adapter next to my ps3 and from there connect the lan cable with switch to my PS3?

I made a paint from the situation.

Is this ever going to work or are those adapters just messing it up?

Got it to work now. But everytime the game ends my PS3 freezes when switch is off. How can this happen?

I used the T10 half duplex and MTU1500 settings and that did the trick for me.

Can you get banned easily on the PS3 for having a lag switch??

Aargh all of a sudden, when I push the switch it says ethernet cable disconnected right away. It worked fine. How can something like that happen when I do not change anything in the setup??
