the wifi antenna in the ps4 is weaker than the ps3. I'm pretty sure they fixed this in the ps4pro

Is your nat saying moderate ? Or something else?
That would be located in your Internet settings, when u look at your stats. I had what your saying happen to me when I had a ps4 , and because the nat said moderate it hampered my download speed and what I could do online. Might want to check and see what yours says

I am thinking about upgrading and if that would be improved it would make my decision a bit easier. I have trouble getting a wired connection to my PS4 sadly.. |
Yes, the pro does have a better wi-fi card. It also supports wireless n+ finally which will allow for a much better wireless connection.

Well, there's a difference between MB/s and mbit/s and you may unknowingly be expecting a number that isn't reasonable. For instance 50mbit would equate to about 6.1 megaBYTES per second. The Ethernet port on the Ps4 doesn't really seem to have widespread issues, so you may have some configuration settings to look at.

Pro will have support for 5GHz wireless, so that's nice.
Still, I don't think the OPs issue is a typical problem. It's not great, but it's not standard for the speeds to be that poor.

is the info in the OP correct about getting less than 1kbps to the system? if that is the case there is something very wrong with your setup, that isn't because of the lower quality Wi-Fi card in the PS4, that is not normal for the system if that is the reason for this thread. |
Well that's worst case scenario (or not, sometimes it doesnt even connect) but it happens quite a lot and best case scenario is not much better.. around 10kb/s. I mean, that is dual ISDN line speed...
