Cannot connect PS4 to AX1800
I bought a RAX20 (AX1800) recently and I'm unable to connect to my PS4. It just doesn't find the PS4. All other devices are found without issues. Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this? Thanks...

You can turn off AX in the wireless settings for the router.
AX is only going to change the speeds if your devices are AX. There aren't many AX devices released currently and the PS4 definitly isn't.

Thank you for the response.
What do you mean by disable the AX?
Turn it off and on again? I've done that.
Interestingly, my PS4 was able to find and connect to the router for some reason yesterday, but when I went in today, I was having the same issue where the PS4 could not find or connect to the router.

No, just try it with the AX turned off.
- TechnographieJul 23, 2020AspirantI'm sorry I'm not very technical and I have no idea what turning off the AX means.
How do I do it? And does it mean a slower connection for my other devices?

No offense, but wifi routers can run several different standards at once. My PC and phone are AX, which is why I bought an AX router. obvioulsy people will have legacy devices in their home so this advice is not practical.
