The PS3 is wired through a Linksys router (Cisco Systems) & the PSP was used through a Linksys wireless access point as well.

I suspect there may be something you need to configure w/your firewall setting on the router the PS3 is connected through.

I work for a major electronics retail chain, and have been through a few routers in my day - I will only sell Linksys now.

1.60 update did not screw up my remote play, just had to reconfigure my PS3's remote play settings and re-register my PSP. See post # 11 by Tye.

As for more lag, I did not notice any significant change. Did you check the connection settings? Try setting it to 5 while you navigate the system and before u watch a video or listen to music, set the connection to a lower number for better quality.

Nothing earth shattering, just a slew of new functions;

BIG updates (requests from fans)

- Remote Play over Access Point (AP): You can now use the remote play feature from a PSP system via an access point. You can establish a remote play connection with a PS3™ system that is not equipped with the wireless LAN feature (20 GB model).

- Precision Zoom: You can automatically enlarge to optimal viewing size the area on the screen where the pointer is located.

- Full Size Keyboard: You can now use a full-size on-screen keyboard to enter text.

- Background Downloading: Support for background downloading of data has been added. Select up to 6 games to consecutively download while using the PS3, watching videos, surfing Internet, browsing PS store, listening to music or playing offline games.

- [email protected] (though not sure if was request from fans): You can now download and use the [email protected]™ program. [email protected]™ is a distributed computing project that is run by Stanford University. The goal of the project is to research protein folding mechanisms in the hope that this will lead to medical treatments for related diseases. Using the [email protected]™ program, you can participate in this project over the Internet. Note that the program must first be downloaded and installed on your PS3™ system.

- Support for playback of BD-RE (Blu-ray Disc Rewritable) ver 3.0 has been added.

nynja: The question isn't 'why did it screw up my remote play?', since it still works like before. My question is, how do I get the advanced features working? (Specifically, accessing PS3 from wifi hotspots outside my house.) Lag is not a problem for people using Remote Play close to their PS3. Sorry for multiple posts, just wanted to clarify...

Thanks.
Tye, which Linksys router are you using?
