Linemantim1972 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I just had Frontier FIOS installed at my house. I have symmetrical speeds going to my PC. 122 d, 124 u. I do a net test on my PS4 and I get 24 d and 6 u. Everything is hardwired into the back of the R1. Are their settings that I should switch around on the PS4 to get higher speeds or is that a PSN issue?? I've followed all the directions for setting up the router for 120+ speeds and everything is set correctly. I have CAT6 running to the PS4 as well. I can hook up my lap top to it and get 120+ speeds. Everything goes to crap when I hook it up to the PS4. Any suggestions?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted December 28, 2015 Netduma Staff Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hey, welcome to the forum The PS4 test is inaccurate. It sounds like the test servers are capping out. So there is almost certainly the full amount available but this just isn't shown in the test. Even if this was all you were getting, it is still more than enough for gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linemantim1972 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 It's not just the gaming end. I want to make sure my streaming won't be effected as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero_Actual Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I've got120d with 25u and have never gotten my ps4 to read those numbers. The best I ever get with the psn test is 35d and 5u regardless of settings and tweaks. Others get different readings, some higher some lower. Why this is, well I don't have the answer and it seems no one else does either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS4 test is really inaccurate and it is most likely that your bandwidth speeds are faster that the servers (so their testing server is limiting the results) This would be why it would appear slower on the test, but actually the applications on the PS4 using the bandwidth should have access to it all.

fuzzy clam Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Yup the PS3/PS4 was/is really inaccurate,my speeds are modest/slow 65 d /5 u and I've never got above 30/3 on the test.So as Crossy said I would just ignore it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
