Hey guys

I have a ps4 i game on but the internet speed on my ps4 is like 500kb/s down 200kb/s up(using wifi ).
the signal strength is 70%-80%. But on my laptop or phone i get like 25mb/s down 15mb/s up(using wifi). i already tried changing the wifi channel but it only made my wifi faster for my phone and laptop :(, does anyone know a good fix for using a ps4 on wifi and i heard you can connect your ps4 with a wifi range extender or powerline adapter (via ethernet cable) and it should fix the internet is this true and if yes what kind of wifi range extenders/powerline adapters should i use my budget is 100 euro's.

thanks in advance

The PS3 and PS4 (of which I have both) have terrible built in WiFi. With any wireless device, the further you are from the wireless router the worse your bandwidth, but the PS3/4 are even worse. You can try a range extender, but if at all possible, your best bet is to run an ethernet cable.

Regarding range extenders, you'd have to find one compatible with your router. Not all are across different brands.
