Basically I have a PS3 (silm, if that matters), and a Time Capsule connected to my router via ethernet , and Im using the TC as the network, called "PamaJama". Basically it connects fine when I connect via ethernet, but when I try to use it wirelessly, "PamaJama" doesent show up. And When I go to put it in manually, it doesnt ask for a name... I know the password is a WPA2 Personal, and that doesent come up as a catagorie either. If I where to change the password to a WEP, would it show up? If yes, how do i do that? and if no, do you know what I have to do to get it to connect wirelesly? I can always just leave it connected via ethernet but I would love for it to connect wirelessly so i could play it up in my room. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help! :)
******EDIT******
The PS3 is ***connected via ethernet to my **actual router**, not the TC, sorry for not clearing that up.

I had the same problem, you have to mess with the type of signal/network. I can't remember exactly which one the PS3 won't recognize (probably "N") but just change it around and it will work just fine.

Do you mind elaborating on this? Like how I do it? And when I do, will my network name "PamaJama" just show up?

I got so fed up, I just disconnected the TC, and I'm going to sell it on ebay or something, damn thing never worked right anyway.
