PlayStation 4 Discussion
Here's an example. Playstation is sitting next to my PC. Ran the PS4 test after the PC test completed. Results are completely different even though both are hard wired. It's not pictured on fast.com on the right, but my upload speed is also 100mbs so the ps4 result is even worse.
After that completed I used the browser on PS4 and got 100mbs.
The servers are inconsistent. Don't use them to troubleshoot connection issues. Don't trust the speed test. If says you're fast, congrats, you got a decent server. If it says you're slow, you might not be. Check your connectivity using a computer or visit fast.com using your ps4s browser.Last edited by sbauer318; 10-11-2016, 02:32 PM.Comment

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
I will say if I put my PS4 in rest mode it will download something faster.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
Yea whether it was my vanilla PS4 or my new PS Slim, my downloads have never taken long. Entire digital games or updates, patches etc. They've all seemed to go rather quick.Comment

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
We all pay for PS Plus, so my expectation is that it should be able to perform as well as Steam, which consistently maxes out my connection.
I guess my other point is that people shouldn't judge the quality of their connection based on what's going on with their PSN speed test or download speeds. Don't rewire your house because the speed test said your connection isn't very good.Comment

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
Logged into Twitch today to try and watch some videos at work, and it says I am banned. I never stream, don't chat, so not sure why I would be banned. Only thing I can think is the three failed login attempts before I had to change my password? This is over my cellular network and not wifi at home. Anyone else run across an issue like this?Comment

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
Definitely aggravates when my speed is awesome, online gameplay feels awesome, but downloads go so low.
The DNS trick posted in here worked for me once, it lasted about 30 minutes then download speeds not only didn't improve but got worse."Successful people do not celebrate in the adversity or misfortune of others."

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion
What's quick, though? Max out your connection? I'm not arguing that it's always 9mb/s slow. I just don't believe it performs well enough. I also don't believe it's consistent enough.

I agree with you and I'd say just compare it to the Xbox which is a console. It's night and day. Sometimes just downloading patches on the PS4 takes forever. My download speed average on my Xbox is between 40-50mps while on the PS4 it's 25-35 both connected to the same router hard wired.
