Yes.
Both laptops working fine. Turned the laptops off. Then turned the freeview box off (which is next to TV). But no difference.

I have an issue where when I try to update, it gets disrupted by my Wii. If there is any way, can you connect via Ethernet to update?

You may have to explain that - I'm not familiar with Ethernet. We have a netgear wireless router.

How to connect via Ethernet
It's basically connecting your PS3 to your router via a wire (called an Ethernet cable), rather than wireless. This will eliminate any interference, provided your router is close enough.

I know on mine the wireless is much slower than a wired connection. Could be interference like another poster said or simply distance from the router. Or maybe the wireless on the PS3 is just a lot slower.
