PS4 DNS Settings - How to BOOST Download Speeds and REDUCE Internet Ping and Lag!

In this video I share some quick DNS setting adjustments that can substantially improve PlayStation 4 Network download speeds and online multiplayer experience, while reducing seriously unwanted ping and lag. I perform the test after adjusting some DNS numbers, and include a couple of my most favorite and popular DNS codes that can help boost your connection as well!

I’m not saying you’re amazing because you helped, I’m saying it because you seem very sincere and genuine in your intention to help others. We need more people like that in the world. Keep being you

John, finding this video was very helpful. As a casual gamer, I’ve always had issues with my pictures, lag and overall performance. Changing my DNS server was the best thing I could have ever done, not only is everything running much smoother, but my internet connection is actually quite faster because of it. Thank you a thousand times over!

[@steampunkerton]

Woah nicely done my guy, I was stuck at 1.3mbps, used your Google one, dropped down to 660kbps, Used the cloudflare one and the internet bumped up to around 5.4mbps and it sawed through the download time from 18 to 10, While not exactly revolutionary it is somewhat handy, I thank you

[@domonickjones6971]

After months and months of struggling and searching with nothing working I found you. Thanks so much bro god bless you and your family.
