PLEASE HELP! I have this R6220 netgear router with a dual band 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz. I have my iphones connected to my 5ghz band, and my ps3 connected to my 2.4 because it doesn't supports the 5ghz ban...

Hi Allan1515,
1. What is the firmware version of the router?
2. Have you tried changing the wireless channel?
3. Does the issue persist on all the wireless devices that connect to the 2.4GHz band?
4. You can try using a WiFi analyzer to check for interference.

Wifi speeds are magic, not science.
5 GHz is faster than 2.4 GHz by design.
Then there is the geography of your wifi system and the different wifi bands you use. Are there neighbour who may have stuff that fights with your system?
What do people usually get with a ps3?
