Unhappy PS Network Online Gaming Errors

Hi All
Having loads of problems connecting to play games such as COD4 & COD5, Resistance 2 among others. I just cannot seem to connect to play online.
Now this has all started since my old router failed. I now have a NETGEAR DG834PN. Whilst browsing the interweb from PC and laptops is no problem, the gaming is - so it must be a port/IP address issue!
I have at two laptops, 1 PC, 1 PS3 and 1 wireless printer, all connected wirelessly. Everything works as advertised apart from the online gaming thing!
And boy is this frustrating. I have read something about DMZ or port forwarding but unfortunately I know too little about these to try to solve the problem. I have been through the wireless set up on the PS3a couple times, and still get the error. I can see the PS3 on the network router pages too!
I am with Virgin Broadband if this is any help!
Please please anyone shed any light on this. Prior to my old router failing, everything worked handsomely!

MAny thanks in advance, and apologies for the double post

Matty
