Playstation Portal TIPS for BETTER Performance and lower lag!

[@chongus420]

Wow man I cannot express how much you helped me I’m a night shift janitor after I get my work done I got 2 hours to kill I bought my portal today and was ready to return it due to lag and pixelation once I changed the resolution when I got home it immediately was fixed and I’m using cellular data your a life saver❤

[@Orzly]

I'm so glad to hear that the resolution change worked for you! Enjoy your time with your portal and make the most of those two hours!

[@jdespinoza3768]

Everything in this video is what you’ll need to get the max/best experience on the portal. I researched everything and basically everything he shows you here is what I found works best- if you are not satisfied after that then the portal is not for you. I love this thing!

[@HonestToCritic]

Here a tip, if you often get freezes/studders on the Portal. Go to your Network setup name on PS5, press options on it and switch your mtu to manual. Then lower it slightly from 1473 from the default 1500. You get less data drops, which means less freezes and audio cuts. It makes the experience practically FLAWLESS... 😎👍

[@DeadOrAliveGames]

Cheers I will try this tmw , just got my portal it's nearly unplayable 😩

[@Orzly]

Let us know how it goes!

[@DeadOrAliveGames]

@@Orzly yeah my portal is pretty much flawless now , solid 60fps 1080p. But I upgraded my router to a gaming one. The Asus tuf AX3000

[@adampopanda2366]

thanks bro, I think it's helpful

[@mahfoudyacef]

Worked for great for me ! Thanks a lot for the info !🙏🙏🙏

[@MrJtm2011able]

1080 and 120 setting fixed a lot of that blurry mess like you said thanks!

[@joehayes8795]

I never had issues with lag but I did notice some blurryness to the image quality. I reduced the screen output to 1080p and turned 120 hz off and the picture is super crisp now.

[@Juanchogamer5000]

And when you play on the tv you have to turn both back again?

[@Tenal]

@@Juanchogamer5000 yea

[@etubboi1155]

This works thanks

[@dim9907]

Probably people already know this but most users say that if you turn off weka up screen option in the settings or just disconnect the ps5 from the monitor or tv altogether, the streaming will improve. I didn’t test that yet because I’m waiting for my PS portal to arrive next week

[@Daniel97926]

And did you test it?

[@dim9907]

@@Daniel97926 I did. honestly for me was unplayable. ive tried H:FW an TLOU part 1 and there was to much lag even with all the optimization I could find on reddit and such. also I have a pretty stable 1gb FTTH

I have my ps5 hard wired. 900 down, 200 up, 5Ghz and my ps5 is in the same room as me yet I can’t play more than 10 minutes without it lagging. It’s ridiculous. How does it work for people with slower WiFi

[@oscarcarrera562]

do you know any tutorial that explains this? I have a similar issue and my internet is extremely fast but the delay is unbearable@@whatgaca

[@Abrarrrrrrrr]

Same, def not buying this after seeing so many reviews. So crazy

[@vicerine22]

How was it, any improvement? I bought mine last week and has been having fun playing it at home and at work. I did encounter an issue at work, i sometimes can't detect 5ghz wifi or hotspot and can only connect to 2.4ghz. I thought it was a hardware issue, but when i was in transit back home, it suddenly connected ro my phones hotspot (which is 5ghz), even at home i was able to connect on my wifi 5ghz no problem.

[@sxixlxnx]

I was going to buy one but you just saved me some money! Appreciate you.

[@dim9907]

those are just fanboys telling you to buy this. I've bought one , have a stable 1gB FTTH connected directly to my Ps5 and s Switch in my bedroom also wired to my rooter/modem with a wifi extender also wired to that. they are both Fritzbox with are among the best you can get. Also did all the fixes an tricks I could find on reddit/internet. The thing just doesn't work properly. I had lag or frameratedrops all the time. TLOU1 and H:FW were unplayable for me. Also the haptic feedback and triggers are way too low on the Portal and the volume is ridiculously low without headphones.i really hoped it worked but this it isn't worth it at all. Should have listened to DF. thank god they refunded me

[@BlackHokage]

Thanks but I'm not messing around with my display settings everytime I want to play on the TV. Think I'm returning after 1 day

[@VanceWarren83]

Sony need to have a setting we can turn on, which optimises the portal. Like changing output to 1080p and setting the correct frame rate.

[@Juanchogamer5000]

Or an automatic “portal mode “ that does just that when it detects remote play

[@GabeZ700]

I plugged in my ethernet and clicked forget WiFi on ps5 and now it runs great remove wifi completely from ps5 in the settings

Thankyou so much, did everything you said, now it runs perfectly. I was ready to smash this thing lol.

[@brunovalentino4744]

This product might not be for everyone, but it's definitely a fantastic purchase, especially for gamer dads. If you're a father who loves gaming but struggles to find time to play while managing family life, this device could be a game-changer. A good friend of mine, who has young kids, recently got his hands on it and absolutely loved it. He was thrilled because now he can enjoy his favorite games without needing to turn on the TV, which makes it a lot easier to sneak in some gaming time while the kids are around or the TV is occupied. It's a perfect solution for dads who want to balance family time with their gaming hobbies.

[@Orzly]

Absolutely! It really is a great way for gamer dads to find that perfect balance between family time and gaming. Glad to hear your friend is enjoying it!

[@mrandomhere6427]

Cheers bro . The performance option is very useful for quick reactions dependent games

Great video and THANK YOU for not telling me to like/sub in the first 20 secs ..I hate that so much haha!

[@iRoadzz]

"I can sit up on a sofa and relax" and what is the point of ps5 then? I never had no issues not being able to relax at home with my ps5 alone, no need to buy another handheld for that. I want a handheld console to work out of home and that it doesn't do well.

[@scottbarker5593]

Really handy video thank you!

[@Orzly]

Glad, it helped!

[@lincoln537]

But if I change all these settings I am doing it on my PS5 right? When I go back to TV mode, then I would have to switch everything again. This is stupid

[@Orzly]

Yeah, I get it. Like some people have said it would be great if the console had a "portal mode" that would do all of that when you connected to it and reverted when you disconnected. It looks like Sony is adding features with the updates so maybe that's something they can add in future

[@lincoln537]

@@Orzly Thank you for confirmation kind sir. Sometimes I am too tired to turn ON the tv and would just want to sit somewhere else and play, but I am not changing settings for my OLED tv just to do this. I guess we will se with future updates. Thanks once more

[@biofrog5672]

I love this is just one giant commercial

[@troigrl]

I never had any issues right out the box and I used it the most of the time away from home. I hadn’t used it in about a month and yesterday it seemed to not connect well. Could it be the firmware update you were talking about? I haven’t done anything differently. I still have Ethernet connected and use my mobile unlimited hotspot as before

[@Orzly]

Hmm, that's a strange one. For me, the updates have been an improvement. Could your home network have been congested? Like if someone was downloading something or watching Netflix

[@troigrl]

@@Orzly no I’m the only user

[@Juanchogamer5000]

Thanks for de video just one question , after lowering the resolution on the ps5 to 1080p and deactivating the 120hz mode should be activated again when playing on the TV?

[@Orzly]

Yeah, if your TV or monitor supports it and the game can run at 120 fps

[@malnurishedmacupial]

Thing I’ll say is …. Ignore the advice that 15 mbs is enough to run this thing. Mine is 70mbs and that’s the fastest I can get where I live and that’s slow as far as I’m concerned. No way will you get a usable experience at 15 mbs you got no chance.

i bought a ps portal yesterday and i either get the error something went wrong or someone else is connected to remote play. when i do connect i lose connection

Mesh routers add a lot of latency

I also make use of Orbi with satelites. I used ethernet and connected directly the ps5 to satelite. Played without problems.

[@S-420]

Lowering the resolution on your console makes no difference to the portal when you're using remote Play it's streaming at 1080p regardless of your resolution it also doesn't matter if you use performance or quality on the games you're playing The only thing that matters is your internet connection

[@TheRealChadillac]

Mine lags even with the Ethernet connected to the ps5. There have been a FEW times where 2K played FLAWLESSLY ….i have no idea why it works like 50% of the time.
