I got both ps4 and ps4 pro... IDK... on my pro I can see the SSID, but can't connect... even if I hold a wifi analyzer (on phone) in the same spot and test for the DB.... 1meter through a wall, can't connect...

... Thinking about returning the other one if not both... idk...

which version of firmare are you on?
are you running it with mesh mode? (same ssid function)
Any special characters/spaces in the ssid and password?
- Hardware Version: EX6150v2
- Firmware Version: V1.0.1.90
No special characters in Password
Tried (mesh Mode) Same SSID, no luck, also tried other SSID's with no spaces and short name, no difference.
Reset to factory also once before to try different modes, no luck.
