i was one of those guys who didnt use my motherboard's antennas because im wired and not on wifi. did not know they were also for bluetooth. fixed my problem!

[Fentoni]

Legend, thanks! I had no idea the WiFi antenna were also for bluetooth... All good now, no problems with my bluetooth headphones and ds4 controller randomly disconnecting anymore

[bigboybilly]

Changing my BT poll rate from 250 to Max decreased my latency from 8ms to 1ms. THANK TOU!!

[ozerro]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I thought my controller was broken, you saved me from wasting money for a new one!

Had to drop a comment to say thanks for this. My latency has gone from 10ish to 2-3. It used to keep disconnecting when it hit 12 or so and it drove me absolutely bloody mad. No drop offs yet and when I put the pad to a place it would usually have issues, its working absolutely fine. Probably didn't help I was apparently on an older version as well even though the program itself said I was up to date. Legend. Thanks dude!

Two and a half years later your advice helped a dude from pulling his hair out thanks! For me it was the motherboard antennas.

This is what worked for me if your using a wired ps5 controller try unplugging and plugging it back while in game, I was having issues with Deathloop on Gamepass but now is working again.

Thank you so much this tutorial. I'm using a bluetooth stick which connected at back side of my computer. And my controller lagged. I think that it was happening via metal of PC's case.

[rockafellayt]

[Gz_Rooch]

[danielsanders]

My controllers have bad connection and don't work a foot from my pc, but bluetooth speakers/headphones work

[bibabutzemann]

Hi, thanks for the video. Do i have to let DS4 windows open to use the controller with 1000hz? or can i close it after i configured everything?
