Clever wife

  My wife is very clever. She may not know the exact details but she knows what should be done in pretty much every case. Take my problem of slow internet connection with my PS3. Since getting a new wireless router the wireless connection to the PS3 has had problems. Other devices in the same room don't have a problem, something is just up with the PS3 wireless. We have an old router so my wife suggested that we use it as a link to the main router. Good idea so I tried it with some custom firmware on it but unfortunately the router was too old to use the firmware. Skip forward to last night where a small wireless bridge is hooked up to the PS3 and zoom, internet speeds are six times what they were and no packet loss. All my wife's idea and working 100%. Now it only takes a reasonable amount of time to download over a Gig of data rather than maybe getting it all downloaded overnight.
