Hi there,

 

It would certainly be an odd problem if it is actually your Router kicking you off the network - which is why I doubt that's the case! What is more likely to be the cause of this is the PS4 disconnecting/losing connection to the Router, which could happen for a variety of reasons.

 

Firstly, I would check if your PS4 has the latest software updates along with removing your current Wireless connection (forgetting it from the consoles point of view), and re-connecting to the network.

 

If that doesn't work, then potentially there is something wrong with your PS4's wireless receiver - something that could be tested by connecting to a separate network. If this really is the problem, then a simple work-around would be just to get a physical connection from your Router to the PS4, with a standard Ethernet cable.

 

Again, if there really is something wrong with your Router and not the PlayStation then I would suggest connecting to your Router and checking the open ports, along with if there is any bandwidth limitation set in place by the Router's admin.

 

Hope this Helps!
