I'm at my wits end with remote play. I try to remote play as a direct-connection to my PS4, I'm about 10 feet away, and through a single wall (ceiling). It won't stay connected for more than a few minutes at a time, and just seems to get worse every minute until it finally disconnects. You are trying to do something that doesn't work. You have 2 choices, either connect the dualshock4 to the computer with cable, or create a 2nd account on the ps4. Use the 2nd account with remote play, then you can connect your ds4 to your primary account. This will allow you to use the DS4 wireless and stream the PS4 screen to your Mac. Press and hold the power button on the front of your PS4 for at least 7 seconds and the system beeps twice to indicate it is off. Reset the controller by pressing the recessed button on the back, near the L2 button, using a paperclip or similar item, press for 5 seconds. Connect your controller using a USB. Power your system back on.
