I almost think that if the PS4 ever doesn't have LAN it will fail over to wifi, and not go back unless you change the settings again.

We only discovered by accident as I plugged the LAN in his room directly into the Shaw modem instead of the switch. Then I had to unplug the wireless router upstairs quickly, and he said he lost connection.
Yeah, I've always kept my PS4 hardwired, with past experience with the PS3 Wifi being really crappy.

I only noticed this after moving, haven't had a chance to call them yet with all the moving hassle. But shortly I'll give them to ring to see what they things as well.
