Playstation 5 slow wifi speed

Thanks for your fast reply. Ok yeah I’ve just checked in VM Connect app and the PlayStation is connected to the Hub 3 downstairs in living room.

it would be better connected to the nearby pod yes

any way I can do this?

Hi, yes with a cat6 cable from wifi pod to PlayStation… the PlayStation is getting 160mb, which is great.

just don’t want a cable running along landing and into a bedroom 🙂

one solution would be to put an extra wifi pod in the bedroom to use a cat6 cable with it.

first, I’ll rule out any problems with wifi in the PlayStation 5.

Okay glad you got to the bottom of the problem.  I don’t know if you can force kit to a particular Pod as I don’t use them. I always use my own WiFi kit. You can think about using a powerline ethernet extender from the Hub to your room. It will be better than WiFi if you can’t get the WiFi sorted. 

Thanks for your advice… yes I actually ya e a powerline Ethernet extender set from a previous setup… so could try that

thanks for your time again 🙂

Grand, I would recommend a wired gaming connection every time.  Even if it's only an older 10/100 PLA, it should have a more stable connection than WIFI.  However, I would recommend trying to get a wired connection to your room, even if you have to use an outside wall.  I've recently cabled for a family member, from the lounge, outside, up behind a spout and into the  roof space.  From there dropped down into a bedroom to a switch and a Wifi AP.

Thank you… that’s another good option if the powerline Ethernet doesn’t work 👍🏻
