Hello, try to move them closer to each other; you can disable 5GHz and turn on 2..4GHz only to test whether PS4 can connect to the Deco's network. 

 

Also, you can disable fast roaming to give it a try. 

 

Besides, may I know is there any error message after you failed to connect to the Deco wifi network? 

 

Good day.

Hi, it is a spammer and has been removed. 

 

Can PS4 detect the Deco's wifi network? Any error message or hints pops up after it failed to connect to the wifi?

 

Does it have WPS button? If so, you can use the WPS button to connect the PS4  to the Deco.

 

May it help.

It sees the Wifi network and connects to it. When testing the internet connectitvity it fails to connect, it finds an IP address then fails. Have tried this with Wifi and via network cable plugged into the Deco directly, samew outcome for both. 

 

Have alos tried WPS with no success, ots doesnt connect at all.
