PS4 download speeds

[Cycid]

I recently purchased the Netduma and have been loving it since I got it. I was able to get good connections in my game every match, I could block laggy players, and could prevent lag from the family streaming things. The only problem that I have faced is my PS4's download speed. With my ISP modem/router, I was getting up to 50 download and usually 5 upload, 20 gig games would take half an hour. But with the Netduma I've only been able to get around 10 down and 2 up, so those games are now taking days. I've tried everything I could find about increasing speeds and getting speeds back to normal and nothing has helped improve at all. I want to get battlefield 1, new call of duty, and titanfall 2, but can't because it would take weeks to download them all. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Hey, welcome to the forum!

 

Firstly the console speed tests can be quite inaccurate so I wouldn't pay too much attention to them. Are you receiving your full speeds through a wired PC? 

 

For your speeds:

• Preemptive or Reactive Algorithm
• 100% anti-flood
• Share excess enabled
• Reset device prioritisation & apply
• Disable IPv6 in WAN, LAN & misc
• Disable deep packet in misc
• Ensure the ethernet cables you're using connecting the R1 to hub & R1 to PC are Cat5e+/can handle your speeds.
• Do a wired speed test from a PC

Have you tried a different ethernet cable to the console as well as a different port on the R1?

Change mtu on console to 1473. As it's a ps4 bug. Settings, network, custom on console. Do not change mtu of router. . Max download ps4 can handle is 6MB anyways. They cap downloads on PS end.

You've got something setup wrong. I see the same speeds for my ps4 with or without the duma. I don't change the mtu on the ps4. Is this a true known fact or just something someone saw on youtube? I regularly download at 48Mbps or 6MB down and speed test with ps4 are genrally 50/5 but ps4 sp3edtest is subjective.

Jw boost. U able to get over 6MB on a download on ps4? I've had 4 games going at once. Never could get 6 MB, I got 6MB per no problem. Think it's Ps network cap. I've seen on PS speed test 130/4. But doesn't matter since it's inaccurate to my speeds.
