Does anyone know how to open my wireless router so i can play online games through it? Thanks.

I would imagine that it's like most routers and you'd have to forward ports.

Don't quote me on that, though.

Edit: If your router's on the list, ignore the 'Start Here' and click on it and follow the instructions for the game you want.

Cheers for the reply, yeah i have to forward the ports. Seems like an unreal amount of work to get the thing working.

I've got a D-Link router and i just initially scanned for wireless networks either on the PS3 or Xbox, it picked up the router, i entered the WEP key and away i went.

It's not always necessary to port forward online games. A few times I've done it the game hasn't actually worked properly - but it depends on the game.
