    PS4 Launcher Problem

    Hey everyone,

    Thought i'd give this a try here, as it got buried with no responses in the Technical Support Forum. Any ideas?

    Are you using a wireless connection, or hardwired with an ethernet cable? If your answer is wireless, what quality would you say your router is? I have a mid-range router (about $100 range) and I had the same type of problem happening when I was playing Warframe. I wasn't able to connect to the servers of the game, and it kept telling me there was a PSN problem, even though I was logged into PSN and could see my online friends list and everything. Was even in a party chat with my brother.

    While I was raging my bro looked up stuff about it and said he found an article saying that the PS4's wireless is very taxing on routers, and to have optimum performance you would need a top of the line router. He started listing routers that costed $250 and up. I said screw that. I went and bought a 25' ethernet cord and hardwired my PS4. I haven't had a single connectivity problem since. I haven't ever lagged once in FFXIV on PS4. I've had a few minor framerate drops in Mor Dhona when there is hundreds of ppl there, but no lag at all in instances and no problems logging into the game.

    It is using a wireless connection, however the signal is good. I use this PS4 for Netflix/Amazon Instant video with no issues. Also downloads about 12GB (XIV) in about an hour on the wireless connection.

    Also, unfortunately a wired connection isn't possible for my downstairs PS4. Router is upstairs
