Question

Dumb question, disconnect network connection???

Jun 30, 2013 9:37AM PDT

I recently purchased a LG LM7600 and I currently have it connected wirelessly to my modem. Well when I play online with my ps3 there is serious internet lag, there was picture lag but I resolved that issue now Ill go from having 4 bars to 2 bars throughout an online match. Never really happened before in the past like it does now,so dumb question is there anyway to disconnect the tv from my modem and then reconnect when I wanna take advantage of the online apps?

Now I ask this question cause I heard if you have your phone on Wi-Fi signal and then computer on Wi-Fi signal and now tv on Wi-Fi signal it takes away from the modems speed. I'm not a technical guy but I guess I know enough to somewhat get me by. Please help as the lag is extremely frustrating especially when I get killed from a guy that appears in front of me, disappears and I'm dead.

To get wired or use one of those powerline network connections. If you find you can get by on WiFi by changing this or that, why not use that?
