Why does my PS3 have bad connection, while playing online games?

While playing online games like CoDMW2, or Uncharted 2, it says I have a 1 or 2 bar, which is bad. For example on MW2 i run with a 2 or 1 bar the entire match, and it has a 1 second delay when I hit Square to reload, my shots also take a second to register before i get a hit marker, or kill. Same with Uncharted 2. Both games run fine (i.e 60 frames per second) and don't stop and start lag.

what puzzles me is i used to have 4 and 3 bar when i had the system downstairs from the router. now that it's upstairs, it has bad connectivity. I recently switched to qwest, which has slowed my browsing and video speed, is this why my connection sucks a*s now?Why does my PS3 have bad connection, while playing online games?
For starters, moving a system or device farther from the access point will make the wireless connection worse. Second, unless you have like high-end service from Qwest, their internet connection really isn't that great, though it is better than some (*cough* Clear Wireless *cough cough*). So you'd need a stronger wireless connection at least, and possibly a better internet connection.Why does my PS3 have bad connection, while playing online games?
Because your internet is slow.

or the host is far away from you
