Thanks a lot for the breif explication!
But yeah, whent the PS4 is connected via the extender it does display all of those listed. IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, primary and secondary DNS, AC address, MAC address, MTU etc..
I took a picture of all of those, went into Manual inserted the same values in where it asked, and it got the IP adress successfully but the internet connection failed.
When attempting to connect to the 2.4GHz band, it worked successfully, is the problem in the 5Ghz band not being able to communicate with the PS4. I am lost ahaha ;(
Quick edit: when not specifying my PS4 to use the 5GHz band only and choosing the ORBI wifi it worked, but when viewing the network statuts it shows that it is using the 5Ghz band, but only goes up to 30Mgbs when my network can go well over 30 in the 5GHz band

I am not confident that the network values supplied by an "exender" are identical to those provided directly by the Orbi.

Does this mean, the PS4 "works", but does not seem to have as fast a connection speed as desired? i.e. the original problem is solved?
