Don't know what I did to the last thread to mess it up for some.

So, PS4 stuff then.

In the link you post by some nobody by the way, so I'll take it with a pinch of salt, he proceeds to call Sony and I quote "racist shady dickholes".

Call me suspicious but I'd doubt the veracity of his Info.

I have a Netgear N300 and it gives a full strength signal in a previous wifi blackspot in the house. I've connected the PS4 to it once just to test it and it seemed fine and my son uses it for Switch all the time without issue.

Not what the OP had problems with but I use homeplugs instead. On Amazon look for TP-link TL-PA4010kit. I use an older version of those and they work much better. More stable than wifi although not necessarily faster than my 5GHz wifi.

Yeah sorry wasn't related to his question, I just seen them get brought up and thought I'd ask cause I'm considering buying them.

I've the old PS4 so can't get a 5ghz wifi connection, and I've Sky broadband. The modem is downstairs but my PS4 is the only device in the house that has problems with the speed, would they improve my connection much? Don't necessarily care about speed but would just like a more stable connection.

Worked for me but Varik's post about suitability to every home should be considered. They are £24stg plus shipping on Amazon so worth a shot

You won't know about stability until you try.

Nothing beats Cat5/6, cheap but requires work and stops being cheap if you need someone to do it for you or an option if renting. How old is the house, is there a phone line in the room they might have used cat5 for phones lines.

Another option which is more expensive are wifi mesh networks, you could get a 2 pack and it'd improve signal throughout the house.

homeplugs aren't suited for every house, and if you've any delicate audio equipment they can lead to interference there and noise on speakers or headphones. You also have issue with signal drop from any high usage such as electric showers.

Are wifi extenders worth the purchase? Have fibre on but my connection upstairs on my PS4 is terrible, getting between 1-5mbs

WiFi extender will be strongest signal. Is it beside the PS4 ?

Also, try a reset of your controllers. There is a small hole at the back beside the left trigger button. Hold it for a few days seconds to reset. I think you need your USB cable to get the PS4 to recognize them again for the first time.

Cheers I'll try that.

The WiFi extender is in another room, probably a good 20 feet away from the Ps4

Any USB hubs around, or anything using 2.4GHz

Just looked at a list of things that us 2.4ghz and yeah plenty of phones, a microwave, a wifi extender etc. How close do they need to be to cause interference though?

Anyone use a wired controller? I'm having issues with my Bluetooth on both controllers which is causing intermittent lag. Am thinking of getting a wired one.

That current search feature is woeful! I've been using my phone to log onto the store and download stuff because it doesn't take me a half hour scrolling through every letter of the alphabet.

The phone is way better for browsing. I think the wishlist is only on the phone.

Potential-Monke

Sorry, couldn't watch that because he kept pronouncing beta wrong... It's bay-tah, not bee-tah! And what a messy XMB! Folders people!!!

So i take it they removed the alphabetical search and replaced it with a normal search? Anything else new?

Varik

Great change, really wonder what else as it's a full number updated this can't be all

All i can say is the slim is a matte finish, you can easy see dust on it though. I would assume the pro is the same.

I should probably just dust more often... or get a dust coloured one

I guess with dbrand, Slickwraps etc, anything's possible!

marcbrophy

The Orange one works well as it's contrasting colour on the buttons and sticks, really makes it pop.

It's a dark blue/purple.

Sorry, I'm colour blind

Anyone here own, or has seen in the flesh, the Glacier White Pro? Currys have it for €370 delivered, but I wouldn't be keen on it if it's a glossy finish or is a general dirt magnet.

Edit: Never mind, they're temporarily out of them.

Of all the ones above coming up for release, Sunset Orange is my favourite.

Not gonna lie, i like the look of the orange one. Nice and bold colouring on it.

Still not going to pay €50+ on a controller though.

Have they put in bigger batteries yet?
