How to Get FASTER Internet On PS5! (Reduce Lag and Lower Your Ping!) | SCG 

Wanted to clarify what I said about upload speeds in the tutorial. Upload speed DOES matter and has to do with speeds and latency (aka ping) in online matches. Since online gaming generally involves data being sent and received (uploaded and downloaded) both speeds are important. In the video I should have said that your download will be higher than your upload but that doesn't mean the upload isn't important. Upload speed will almost always be lower than download because download is generally used more during non-gaming activities like web searching and video streaming. So even though your upload may be lower, its still enough for gaming because not too many other people on your network will be using it. Upload is generally less than a quarter of the download so if you have 100MBPS your upload will usually be around 15-25MBPS. There isn't an easy way to get faster upload outside of the steps I outline in this video. In some cases your ISP may be able to provide you with symmetric speeds but not all ISPs offer it to consumers. I apologize for any confusion during the video. All the steps I discuss in this tutorial also work for upload as well so try them out and see if they help your connection.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who had this problem. I went from pretty decent connection on PS4 to basically being unable to play online games on the PS5

Finally someone who actually tells you what to do and not tell you to use a Ethernet cable thanks man works wonders

Switching my DNS to ‘’manual’ helped increased my download speed significantly.Thank you!

Thanks Man Worked for me too, increased download speed from 63mbps to 210mbps. Pure gold!!

I want to tell you thank you for your help! I just randomly looked up videos and found yours. It was very easy to follow and understandable. You earned my subscription! Definitely will look up other content by you 😀😀

This is amazing honestly I went from 27 to 76 thanks so much

Your my savior I couldn’t play cod without lagging and freezing but now no lag ily no homo

Thank you so much I had lag all the time your the best information for my ps5 and if I need help I will watch u but thank u do much I swear❤

dude ur amazing i went from 64 to 274 all i did was disconnect my phone off the wifi went to 5g and used the google serves !!!! ur a GOAT!!!!! now i could play 2k without selling my jump shots lmfaooo

To add to this, each network (2.4GHz/5GHz) also has different channels. I've had routers where every so often the speed would slow and selecting a different channel would refresh and bring it back up again

I got from 29 to 90 thank you so much dude!

Goatee video dns server change worked wonders

This worked. Especially when changed DNS. Also try updating your network config with the MAC address of your PS5. And set it to 5ghz. That one super boosted me

Thank you 🙏🏿, i changed it to 5hz and my download went from 6 hours to 20 min

Thank you, i changet the automatic to 5 and its gone up from 70-80 to 260-270 🔥

My son was forever complaining about his ping on Rocket League being very high and laggy, yet my speed tests on my phone showed my broadband being more than sufficient. I followed these steps and so far his ping has been in the low 40s ever since. Hopefully this resolved that issue, thanks for your work.

To correct one MAJOR mistake with what you said… Upload Speed is equally as important as Download Speed. Upload speed is what determines how servers receive your input, for instance in an FPS Game like COD or BF, a higher and more steady upload speed would result in much fewer mis-registered shots and moments where you were clearly ahead in the gun battle, yet your 8 shots barely damage the opponent, but their 3-4 shots drop you instantly. Upload speed is extremely important and cable internet like Comcast sucks because they give you 95% of the speed you pay for for download speed and 5% or less for upload speed. I’ve been battling with comcraptic for years now about this and the can simply make an adjustment on their back end, but they’d rather force you to pay for a faster speed in order to have a higher upload speed.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!

Thank you so much. Helped a lot:)

Just went from 1 Mbit to 97 MBits! Thank you, my internet on my ps5 was slow as shit before

Life saver

Thx man really needed this 👍

The 5GHZ switch from automatic just quadrupled my speeds. Thank you so much

Found it thanks

OMG MY DOWNLOAD SPEED WENT FROM 41.2 to 148.5 YOUR THE BEST MAN😇

Thank you so much My internet speed is much better now

this video is still valid helped me from 87 to 368 but don’t forget to play with band frequency if all else in this video fails 🤝🏽

Good review. The only flaw I could see was with the DNS server section. I think you should have spent more time here knowing that not a lot of people have any idea of what this is and how it all works. Also, when you do connection testing, you need to run a few tests back to back and get the avg.

Went from 7 to 94 download speed after watching this. Legendary!

thanks man appreciate this so much not the craziest change but it did help

Thanks it work really well up double for me ! Great advice !

your the man saved my shit respect

Fantastic help. Went from around 70mbps to 347mbps!

Thanks man! I appreciate your skills!
