R7000 and PS4
Hi, I have R7000 and PS4 and I have continuous disconnection of the PS4 from the PSN Network. I tried to activate UPNP for port forwarding and I tried to put PS4 IP address in DMZ without success....
- After some hours of playing it seems that the problems is solved. At the end I think it was a ps4 fault, in the sense that if you don't reset the net setup when you change the router probably ps4 "rember" something of the old router and the connection became instable.
I still have hour and date problem, yesterday I contacted netgear support but the solutions they suggested me didn't solve the problem.
I also have the R7000 and have used it with the PS4 since launch without any issues using either of the two latest official netgear FWs updates.
For my setup the PS4 is hard wired with a DHCP address reservation and upnp enabled. The ps4 is not in the DMZ nor are am I using any port forwarding other than upnp. the ps4 has never experienced a disconnect with 4 to 8 hours of daily usage. I have not experienced any issues running the ps4 with upstream QOS enabled either.
For the past two weeks or so I have been running the latest DD-WRT FW which cleared up unrelated wifi issues and also has been absolutely brilliant in regards to QOS. No ps4 lag whatsoever even with simultaneous multi GB downloads running full throttle, sip calls and netflix viewing.
All of my ps4 usage is for online gameplay. I also did limited testing of the ps4 via wifi, just to try it out and encountered no disconnects or client side lag. I prefer a wired connection and have been doing so with the ps3/4 for years now.
