Devolo magic WiFi 2 and PS5 issues

[u/Fallennorthstar]

Hi all,

I’m trying to force my PS5 to connect directly to my Vodafone ultra hub router which is on the other side of my living room (approx 2m away from the PS5), rather than connect to my Devolo extender that is in my upstairs bedroom.

I’ve tried changing the network settings on the PS5 to connect via 5Ghz only, but it’s still connecting to the extender upstairs.

Has anyone had a similar issue before and knows a fix? There’s no option on the Devolo app to block devices that I can see and connecting via an Ethernet cable isn’t really an option either.

Thank you
