Have a AC86U and the PS4 upstairs often lags or disconnects completely via wifi. My son is very upset as he keeps losing points on games, he's pretty good at some games and plays in tournaments. No other device in the entire house does this, even when playing games on tablets right next to this PS4, never have any problems at all only this PS4.
We live in a small terraced 2 bedroom house. The AC86U is downstairs in the living room in the corner at the front of the house. Sons PS4 is in the back bedroom at the back of the house. WIFI signal is full bars on both 2.4 and 4 bars out of 5 on 5.0ghz. Doesn't matter which one we choose it often lags like crazy and/or disconnects very often.
I do have a N66U i could maybe stick in my bedroom (bedroom next to sons ps4), haven't tried that yet, but Im not sure it would solve anything if the signal strength is fine as it is.
I understand the PS4 has a awful wifi setup. Going wired is a option, but not without a lot of work...ie... Feeding lan cables through the attic and down into his bedroom. We want to use wifi if possible.
We have a PS4 downstairs that is wired and sits next to the router (my one). I never have any problems.
Could anyone help me get to the bottom of it? maybe some settings to adjust in the router? maybe fit the N66U in my bedroom as an extender or something else?
