ex7000 access point or extender

I cannot stay connected on my ps4 with my ex7000 I have it setup beside my ps4 with a lan connected to it. It is currently in extender mode. Would it work better if I moved it and connected it to my router and made it an access point instead? After about 30 minutes my ping goes way up and lose my connection.

    Hello adamslater

     

    It would be more reliable for gaming if you made it a AP and connected it to your router via ethernet. But you may want to try and change your wireless channel on the router to see if that helps the connection.
