My PS4 and Xbox One are in the same room and I'm on Virgin Media 60 MB broadband and use an Asus RT-N66U router.
My X1 is connected to the 5 GHz network and reports speeds of around 55 MB down and 3 MB up.
My PS4 is connected to the 2.4 GHz network and it doesn't matter what settings I tweak, I never see better than mid-teens down and 2 MB up. All other older wireless devices using the same network in the same room as the PS4 get much faster speeds on the 2.4 GHz network.
Sony really did scrimp on the wireless functionality of the PS4, which isn't really acceptable for a £350 device released in 2013 and it's not even compatible with 5 GHz networks.
