I was having a YLOD problem. I consulted your guide got the required materials and fixed the YLOD. Before the YLOD problem I had set up the PS3 to connect via wireless on my Linksys router. Now I can no longer connect to the wireless router. Re-entered all the required information to connect to the wireless router. Still can't connect. Can you help me with this problem? Thank you.
Is this a good question?

Not sure you got this fixed but I had the same problem after a YLOD repair.
Take the top cover back off and look at the board on the left in front of the power supply. There is a ribbon cable that wraps around to motherboard. Mine had come unplugged when I was pulling apart the motherboard.
After I reconnected that cable I got back my network and bluetooth connections.
Hope this helps someone else.

Tony, thanks for the tip. You saved us from pulling our hair out after running into the same issue with a post YLOD fix. Now everything works!

Can you tell us a little more? Can the router "see" the PS3? Is there a particular error that you are getting? Or does it just say that it is unable to connect?
