Re: Ps4 issues in bedroom suddenly but pro ok

does PS4 continue to work in the living room? If so, the problem is the signal. You just haven't got enough.

You'll need to either:

Move the superhub
Get a wifi extender
Use homeplugs

Re: Ps4 issues in bedroom suddenly but pro ok

Wireless is very much a "weakest link" sort of thing. Sounds like the base PS4 just doesn't have a good enough receiver in it for your needs.

Either way, the problem is with that PS4, if it works in the Living room but not the bedroom, I don't think much can be done.

What WiFi ate you using 2.4 or 5? Perhaps the older PS4 does not work with 5

Maybe the 2 PS4s are trying to get the same IP?

Do you have any suggestions to help, because a couple of weeks ago the 2.4ghz is fine

Re: Ps4 issues in bedroom suddenly but pro ok

I don't own a Superhub 3 but hopefully it allows you to change the broadband channel you use for 2.4GHz Wireless.

If so, it might be worth downloading a free network scanner (like this one) to the laptop, and see if there's any local congestion on the 2.4GHz channels.

I think there's only really 3 usable channels on the 2.4GHz band - 1,6 & 11 so you can cycle through these (depending on the scan results) to see if you can get better reception in the bedroom.

If there's no congestion, then just proceed with one of the solutions Kushan outlined earlier in this thread.
