Hi all just looking to see if there is a problem or whether this is normal.
PS4 wireless connection.
Sky home hub 2 (the black one)
Fibre connection.

PS4 in same room as hub and i get a download of approx 20mb/s.
PS4 upstairs and connection is down to like 3/4 mb/s.
Now obviously i know its never going to be the same as when its in the same room but surely i should get a better connection than this??

Any idea's would be great, thanks.
 
PS4 WiFi is just not great.

The WiFi card is just pants it seems. I pull 14mb from my bedroom, rMBP gets 150mb, Nexus 5 get 150mb, iPad Air 2 gets 150mb. Its not even bad signal strength I currently have 82%, I have a brand new TP Link Acher C7. Slightly disappointing, that its not even 5GHz, or AC, or anything really new/improved over the PS3. Currently I'm getting 5.1Down.

I think I will end up switching to using a Power Link at some point.
 
Yeah think i will look into getting some home plugs. Shame my other half has banished the PS4 to the bedroom lol

Cheers for the advice guys.
 
Well popped into my local Argos today and picked THESE up.
Seem to have connected really easy, just a shame PSN is still down. Such a poor poor service sony!!!!!!
 
It's not like it's just network congestion, it's a deliberately malicious act by a third party.

Yeah i know this but looking at Xbox live status there back online. Not sure how accurate that is? Just thought after 2 days they would have got back to some sort of service. Now we have to pay to go online i hope they're going to sort it sooner rather than later.....
