I have a meg connection and connecting my laptop to the router via Ethernet gives me a speed of meg connection. Yet i unplug my laptop and connect my PS4 and do a speed test and i get a 27meg result? Xbox One is fine and shows full speed, but PS4 is all over the place. I think it's just how the PS4 estimates the speed that is wrong, my download speed on PS4 is usually pretty good. I also find that downloading seems to be faster when the PS4 is in rest mode.

Demosthene Novice Member. Mark, Rest mode for PS4 will increase your download speed dramatically as it shuts down everything apart from your downloads, allowing your PS4 to download significantly faster, my download speed shows at 87mbps which is lower than the truth but downloads a lot faster than anyone that I know. Don't trust the system and use and abuse the download speed of rest mode to download faster. Kind Regards Demosthene.

Click to expand I have this same issue. I have 50Mbps and on the Xbox One I get that full connection. On my PS4 I was getting 2Mbps. I set up port forwarding and now I'm getting around 17Mbps. It didn't fix the issue completely but it helped. Maybe you can try that. I have gone over 2 weeks with out mics working..

I have a beast of a connection.. I'm really starting to think its a sony problem need some firmware updates. We are those who play. Wasn't able to check this topic the other day, bumping it up. Rattlesnake posted I suppose I could try that but I have my doubts given my efforts so far.
