PS4: Speed up downloads - tips & tricks
Just speed up the downloads on the PS4 if they are too slow for you. Whether update or a game - the slow speed is often due to the WiFi connection. You can find more solutions here in this practical tip.
Speed up download of PS4
To speed up the download speed on your PS4, we have put together the following tips for you:
- If you are using a WLAN connection, make sure that the console is not too far away from the router, otherwise the speed will decrease quickly.
- To generally increase the download speed, you should therefore connect the console to the Internet via LAN.
- If several people use your internet connection and you have a rather low bandwidth, this can also be responsible for a slow download.
- However, the error can also be with the Playstation Network. Especially when many users access a title, this can result in a loss of download speed.
- Tip: You can see whether the PSN is currently affected by a malfunction on the Allestault.de page.
- Then try again later so that you can use the full bandwidth for the download.
- In many cases, applications run on the console in the background. For the full bandwidth, you should end it. To do this, press the PlayStation button on the controller and select "Close applications" from the menu. Close all applications there.
