Sorry Malabbey, not sure what 7522 is. Do you just have problems with music? Any probs with video or pics?
Latest from me...
It's probably early days but...connected up the netgear router tonight. PC is wired to it, as it was to the Belkin. No network drop outs at the PC end, like I experienced the other day with the Belkin. So that was a positive start.
Later on I fired up the PS3 and started to stream a video down. PS3 is wireless, same IP settings as before, just different SSID to the netgear wireless router, same channel, same WEP encryption, uPnP off on the PS3 and router. Basically same setup as the Belkin but different hardware.
Anyway, a DivX3 film (1.2Mbps) streamed happily for over 30 mins. No disconnections, no DLNA errors. Only the occasional stutter, and occasional long stutter at times, but the movie just carried on. The wife was even browsing the net at the same time on her laptop. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
So having tried video, I moved on to pictures. Set a slide show going of streamed pics from the PC, ran without a hitch for 15mins. No errors. Not tried music yet.
Like I say, early days, will try some more tomorrow.
Cheers

Purchased PS3 about a month ago and just found the time to start seeing what it has to offer.Happy I am to find out it has the ability to network with my PC.Like you folks I have run into numerous protocol errors and after reading the many post from many sites, I the problem lies with the PS3 firmware.Thank goodness for blogs, forums…etc.etc..
However I have noticed something that I can't explain. Perhaps someone with more experience than me, (that's not hard) can explain.
I am able to stream videos, listen to music, and browse pictures, when I reference my external libraries.Suppose I better clarify.All pics, movies, and music are backed up to external drive.They are on my C: drive as well. When I go into my DNLP application (Orb), and change my files to point to the external drive things seem to work.
When libraries are referenced on the C: drive, the PS3 sees the PC set up.The various icons appear on the PS3, however, when I press enter (to view song listing) the protocol message appears.
When libraries are referenced on the external, the PS3 sees the PC set up.The various icons appear on the PS3, and when I press enter (to view song listing) the listing displays and I can play and stream the music.
Likewise for video, and pics.
So for me this would seem to be a work around until I am able to stream directly from my C: drive.What kind of puzzles me is that I'm sure you folks must have tried this did it not work for you?
Tech notes:
Operating system XP
PS3 with latest firmware.
DNLP program, Orb
Mine manages to wirelessly stream upto about 7 or 8Mbps before it stutters, so usually more than enough to cope with 720p MKVs/Vobs. Still its odd because I can transfer files at around 18-20Mbps to the PS3 from the PC but there is no way it can stream video at those speeds, at least on mine.
I guess if someone is browsing the net at the same time, thats gonna hurt it.
Hehe cool, hope it continues to go well. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 I am wondering the the PS3 wireless firmware has issues with certain routers and or 'N' implementations too. Hmmm.
Just music. Video and pictures stream with no problems
Hi Malabbey,
That sounds like a permissions issue on the Music folders or perhaps a WMP library issue. You could try moving the music folders out of the Root Music folder (e.g. "My Music"), remove "My Music" from the monitored folders and stop sharing music. Then re-enable music sharing and monitoring the folder, then move all the sub directories (albums) back. But I suspect you may have already tried all that.
I also found this thread on the US board...
DLNA PProtocol Error 7522 - PLAYSTATION®3 Media - PlayStation.com Forums
It might help a little.

Thanks for that Al. Haven't really tried to fix it as I'm now streaming from my laptop. Will look into it later.
Whats ISP are you using your EL cheapo router with?
Im with o2 and tried (very quickly) to get it going last night, but didnt get too far - gonna give it a proper bash tonight, but just thought id ask
Karoo, but the ISP shouldn't matter. Yhe data is going between the PCRouterPS3 so, unless you are talking about something else entirely? Streaming off the Internet or do you mean the internet connection itself is not working with the router? Some talk that some ISPs need you to for 1400 MTU with that router if thats the case. Mine has been ok on default.
Well guys, I think its official. The Netgear router that I have borrowed as solved my streaming problems.
I have just streamed 1hr43min movie from PC to PS3. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7//static.avforums.com/styles/avf/smilies/clap.gifdata:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7//static.avforums.com/styles/avf/smilies/clap.gif
I'm very happy!

My cheapo router is still going strong, although I have discovered a bug with the PS3 firmware and mkv/vobs which is annoying..
