Will not work with WPA2, WPA or no security - but I'm 100% certain it's a problem with the PS3 as it won't pick up any of the other wireless networks which are in range (I live in a block of units). I experimented further, then got to the point of the possibility of fucking it up (I don't think I did) so I completely reset the PS3 settings to default and also did a default settings reset on my router, still no love. Then I started getting errors of not even being connected to the network. The original problem I was having was connecting to the playstation network which I found a lot of people having the same problem on the internet, so mucked around with a few settings - mainly on the PC. The wireless light goes off and remains off (it does come on and flicker when I boot up the PS3).
