It also proves that the issue is the PS4's antenna. That way, you're effectively using the extender as a high-power external antenna.

The best fix is to get one of those outlet wifi range extenders and plug your PS4 into it via the extender's ethernet port (setup the PS4 as a wired connection). But is *is* a problem, and a well documented one (so cut the fanboyism, people). It's when you put some distance in there that the disparity vs. If you're really close to your router, nothing seems wrong.hence these people who say they see no issue. More specifically, it's wifi signal pickup degrades with range MUCH faster than most devices. I have a Nighthawk router and my PS4's wifi still has a much slower connection than my other devices in the same room (Chromebook, my cell phone, PS3, 360), which is just a couple of walls and about 30 feet from the router. Whether or not it impacts you is entirely dependent on range. I love my PS4, and buying a better router might help a little, but doesn't change the fact that the PS4 DOES have a relatively weak wifi antenna. Frostypants 2641d ago (Edited 2641d ago )
