How to Make Your PS4 Download Faster

Connect Your PS4 to Your Desktop With an Ethernet Cable

Recommended Videos

Unfortunately, not every gamer has the opportunity to have a set up close to an ethernet port or router. If you can’t connect your PS4 with a traditional ethernet hookup, try connecting your PS4 to your desktop or laptop instead. You’ll then change your PS4 connection setting to LAN Cable and then cross your fingers.

This method doesn’t necessarily work for everyone and depending on what kind of package you have from your internet service provider this could result in little to no change in your download speed. Once your download is complete, you will want to disconnect the PS4 and return to your usual set up but for the sake of getting your games and patches to download much faster, this is a great and easy alternative that has the potential to make a big difference.
