playstation internet not working

palna

for the past couple of weeks my playstation internet has stopped working.

It says
signel strength: Not connected
Obtained ip address: failed

Weak access point

How can I fix this, as it stopped working for no reason.

This is either your router or the wireless connector on the PS3.

As you're posting (via a pc?) I would go for the PS3 fault.

Can you hard wire it?

palna

yes i am posting via my pc.

I cant hard wire it, because its too far.
wonder what went wrong as its been working for years and can it be fixed

Could have burnt out if it's constantly used.

steve1980 - nope as i only sometimes use playstaion internet and rarley play games online.
I want it back so i can download stuff.

Just because you don't use it, doesn't mean it's not running!

The wireless will be constantly receiving and transmitting.

I use it for iplayer 4od too
Anyway i can fix it?
