BT WiFi Discs or Cable?

himonster — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 17:44:28 GMT

I'm wanting to get the most stable connection in my gaming room upstairs.

The hub is directly below my room, but running a cable is a bit of a job.

I have 3 BT discs that I've never used. BT sent them to be a year or so ago and they're the black ones, still sealed.

Can they be of any use? Speed tests shows my WiFi is good but I wondered if using a disc and plugging it into my PS5 via ethernet would make anything more stable?

Speed tests shows the same speed throughout the house which is around 65mb.

Thanks

If you already have them, just try them and see.

Wired connection will always be preferable to WiFi however.

How do the discs work though? I mean, if a wifi disc is plugged into my PS5, is it technically just the same as WiFi?

Either use the discs for WiFi or hard wire from hub to PS5 not disc to PS5
