Is this possible? Using TP as modem for PS3 UPDATES ONLY?

Basing it off throughput (6mbit connection) really doesn't have as much to do with it as latency does.
A 768 or even 1.5 connection would be fine. It's latency that is the issue (having ~100ms to the first hop would stink).
This is why gaming over wireless can cause lag issues.

My old Titan's did not have this problem at all.

The posters are right about ad-hoc, that will NOT work in a PS3.

I had to do a hard reset and after that ive noticed my batt life is better and it barely gets hot anymore. Before, it would get hot enough just using it NOT plugged in, that it would start to burn my hand. Didnt even realize the heat issue was gone till i read your post. It even charges better, and i didnt put the batt hack dll back on it after the HR. But as with anything electronic, YMMV.

PS3 doesn't accept adhoc networks, which is what WMWifiRouter creates.
