Question

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

So I need to replace my PS4 because it died and I don't want to wait until the PS5 comes, so this time I dont wan the old model, I want the pro because I want the 1TB of memory the 500 GB model filled up to fast.

But before I get the pro I have t make sure it can connect to 2.4Gghz wifi because I have a buddy of mine that says he has an issue with his PS4 pro connecting to the internet.

So I'm making sure the pro won't have an issue because if it does I will have to get a 500 GB model but I want the pro for the extra space.

I'm pretty sure you can just switch down to the 2.4 ghz connection. Or you can buy the older model and just buy an upgraded hdd.

Basically will the pro have any issues connecting to a 2.4 GHZ wifi connection, I know that's what I got because the PS4 I had couldn't do 5 GHZ

If you have an original model PS4, it can only connectto the 2.4GHz band on your router. The newer PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro can both use either 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands. Certain routers combine both bands into one SSID

It definitely connects to the 2.4GHz band.
You're trying to avoid it using the 5GHz band, correct?



Sounds like you need to make sure your Router isn't using the same SSID for both bands. (If that's the problem you're referring to).
