Try freeing up some ports, or just making the PS3 a DMZ (warning: maybe incorrect phrasing).

here's a guide/faq thing

You can have him put the PS3 in the DMZ, but since you can play each other, but just get disconnected, I don't think that's the issue.

Is it an 802.11g router? How far is the PS3 from it? Is there a cordless phone that works in the 2.4GHz band? in the house? Can he run a cat5 cable to the PS3 to rule out a wireless issue?

i told him to move the ps3 to a place where he can test out the wired issue. ill have to ask him if he did that. i didnt think about the wireless phone.. ill have to check into that issue.
