hard wire PS4 recs

I am using a cable modem, CM1100, and the Orbi AX4200 system. Cable at 500Mbps. I have no issues running three apple TVs, three Ipads, a MacBook, and three phones, I am satisfied with their performance. I want to hard wire my PS4 (for online GT Sport), as the Wifi has not been as stable as I need it to be, I came close to losing a sure win race once, and I don't want to risk it again. Wireless, the PS4 is seeing 70Mbps, but during game play, I have had one red bar. Before I run cable and and install jacks, I would very much appreciate recommendations on the preferred configuration. Appologies if this has been discussed prior, I have done several searches and none match my particular situation.

 

Thanks in advance!

  • You can ethernet connect the PS console to the RBR for best performances. If you have run out of free LAN ports in back, you can install a external Gb switch, such as  NG GS108 to help add LAN ports to the back of the RBR.
