PS5 - Poor Connection Quality

Hello! We recently got a new PS5 and have had poor connection errors since day 1; error code CE-118144-9.  I have an XB7 xFi gateway and gigabit extra 1200 Mbps. Unfortunately, I can barely play 15-20 minutes before I get the poor connection message and the system disconnects.

I have also tried the Nighthawk AX2700 modem/router, but the poor connection error continues, I also tried another PS5 and still the same issue.

I connect via ethernet, changed the DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, NAT type 2 but nothing helps.  All other devices connect just fine (phones, laptops and TV) and work great. 

Anyone know if there’s a special setting I need to adjust?  Thank you!

@brodz012  Hello and good evening. Thanks for posting about your experience and trusting us to assist. We are a great team of experts, and are always happy to help. Wow, that is strange even after trying multiple modems, and the direct connection. Thanks for all those details as well, it really helps us get to the bottom of this. I have a PS5, and know how important it is to get the best performance for it. Did you hear about the PS5 Pro possible launch details next week? That will be awesome if true. What games are you playing, and are you able to reset the network settings to wired when testing wired?

@XfinityBenny​ Hello Benny,

Yes, my network is connected to Wire LAN.

Today my son was steaming a Disney game on PS plus and was only able to play 8minutes before receiving the poor connection message and the game closed. 

Also received a new gateway from Xfinity XB8, but the problem continues. :( 

Open to all suggestions! Thanks for your reply
