Another benefit of 5 GHz is that it's not a commonly used frequency. A lot of items in your home operate on the 2.4 GHz frequency, like a microwave or baby monitor or cordless phone. If you have these close to you, you can get interference on your Wi-Fi and degrade your signal.
A great way to get a wired connection without having to get a long Ethernet cable is to get a WiFi mesh system. It comes with 2 routers, one main router and a satellite router. Connect the main router to the modem and move the satellite to the room where your Ps5 is located and connect them with an Ethernet cable. I did and Ps5 treats it as a wired connection. So far no drops or even lag for me.
I need help Even though I am using 5 GHz Wi-Fi with my Netgear R8000 The Wi-Fi range is pretty damn good but I usually get 80% signal strength sometimes it causes my ping to skyrocket at 200 MS then it goes back down to 25 ms even if I reboot my router it happens often I believe it's because my walls are pretty thick I have tried Wi-Fi repears or Wi-Fi extenders it doesn't work They keep telling me the signal strength is bad when it goes red My only two options is to get a Wi-Fi power line or a Netgear mesh extender which one is better?

I will accept any answer 😎👍 I need to improve my ping since I am getting into the TH-cam channel business 😢
@@HeyCMDR1991YT I’m not familiar with WiFi power lines, so I can’t help you there. WiFi repeaters and extenders are worthless to be honest. They “steal” bandwidth from your main router and send it to the extenders, causing speeds to drop. It’s probably good for areas that you have dead zones, but for gaming I don’t think so. Mesh WiFi satellites don’t steal bandwidth, it’s an extension of the main router, there’s not a different SSID that you will have to choose from, it’s the same SSID. I regularly get 60-90 ping when I’m playing CoD Warzone, with the main router downstairs and the ps5 & satellite router upstairs w/ only a 200mbps internet.
Where I'm located my WiFi speed are 100Mbs download with 15Mbs upload, to maximize I run an Ethernet to my PS5. I also have a PS4 pro in the other room so I bought a 50ft Ethernet cord & performance is more than twice as good as it was using WiFi! Highly recommend using wired if possible as it alleviates the problems with WiFi connection issues.

Don't forget to configure those ports in the router to achieve NAT2. Some routers are so locked up you can only achieve NAT3. That will greatly reduce issues when getting NAT2 set up correctly.
1-100% confirm disable IPV6 improves everything on PS5 2- PS5 prefer 2.4Ghz in general so I recommend 2.4Ghz especially if your router supports wifi6. I will try Google DNS!, I tried Google DNS not good actually 👎🏻 my ISP DNS much much better, and I change DNS from router settings to make sure!

Can we still choose 5GHz with a direct wired connection? Whats the pros and cons if we do so? Is there any change other then the download speed? Thank you.
DNS cannot have any effect on download speeds. DNS is like a yellow pages book. You open it to figure out where you can find something. Once you've found the address/phone number, it is not gonna help you get there any faster. So, once you PS5 has found the IP of that server you are downloading from using the DNS, it does not use the DNS again. DNS resolution makes for 0.00001% of your overall game download time.
@@OwaisLonewell it did, and why is it that those 500 other reasons only happen when i do this? I did it all the time for ps4 and still had the same outcome. Why is it that these 500 other factors only come into play once ive made the change and never any other time?
@@EBG... because if you study what DNS is you'll realize it cannot improve your download speed. One possible way it can do it is if one of your DNS providers gives you an IP of a "slow" server/route, the domain name then changes DNS records to a fast server and you change DNS at the same time, resulting in PS4 getting IP of the new fast server. That is very unlikely and could happen the other way round as well. DNS can affect IP resolution speed, not download speed. It's just technologically not possible.
Nice video. Always a little apprehensive about disabling items in router settings though, especially as IPV6 is more modern. Disabling may cause other other devices to not behave correctly. Also I wouldn't personally route my DNS through Google as there are so many tracking services the http request goes through via Google which I'm not comfortable with. 5ghz is good if your playstation is close to the router, 2.4 ghz is better if further away. I personally have a wired connection using cat8 ethernet cables. If I'm in a different room I use TP link wireless boosters to help with the signal. All my own experiences and not saying its the right thing to do, but it works for me 😀

Would this apply to the Xbox series x also? I’ve never had any problems with the ps5 but my Xbox sometimes says it loses internet when I’m in the store or just in the main menu. Then it says there’s signal and it drops again when I try to go back in the store

hey there.. so i’ve been having this issue where ive been having so much input lag on my PS5, even my ps4 and i think it has to do with certain electronic devices we have at home. Im not sure but im guessing the delay/input lag i have comes from dirty electricity or that one electronic device such as an old PC or a newer pc has the wrong voltage settings. So my PS5 gets very hot and the input lag i have is huge. Like the games i play arent playable at all. Is there any way to fix this with another cable or do you have any tips ? Im wired and i mostly play on 10-20ms and i have a gaming screen with 1ms as well. Been going on like this for years i would pay so much to fix it
Does this fix the issue most PS5 users have that the PS5 says that the router does not support IP-Fragment, and that the console has been limited because of it?
The higher the CAT number is the better the speeds will be as long as you have fast internet, I have 1gb plus internet and use a CAT8 cable for my PS5 and my speeds are 800mbps + hardwired in
You can't get faster net speeds than what you're paying your ISP, some cables can improve the speed up to what you are paying but not faster than that.
I have only experienced slow wifi once on PS5. And that's probably because someone moved the router closer to the ground and further away from where my PS5 is located.
That is correct. It is easier for a wireless signal to travel down than up. Also the further away you are from the router, the likelihood of it moving you to the slower, further reaching frequency of 2.4 Ghz instead of the faster, shorter range 5 Ghz.
Can you help me figure out why my upload is showing no where near the speed i should be getting, its currently showing between 3mbps and 15 and i should be getting over 100mbps. Iv tried everything to my knowledge and i can't figure it out
if i have a cat8 & cat6, which should i use. Heard cat8 is overkill but would that be better than the cat6 anyway. i have 500 download & 20 upload speed. By overkill do they mean if you're not pushing a lot of data through u dont need it cuz it could actually slow it down
I’m wired and when I do a speed test through the built in ps5 test my upload speed is 12mbps while my download is 811mbps. If I go to the www through the ps5 and do a polka speed test I’m like 811 up and 800 down. So something is off with the ps servers.
I have another issue with ps5. I can play online games, download games but most of the time I can't go to PS store to browse games (even the picture of the games don't load). Do you have any suggestions?
Hi guys, My Xbox X speed is 250 mbps wifi vs 75 mbps wired, why wired is less? My ps5 is 70 mbps wired vs 40 mbps wifi, why ps5 stat is 3 times slower than Xbox? Both are connected to 5Ghz internet.

What about upload speed?my ps4 on a wifi with NAT3 is still getting a faster upload speed than my ps5,either thru wired connection or wifi on any NAT type.both consoles also sat next to router
Another video with misinformation about DNS. It has nothing to do with download speeds. It can improve domain name resolution faster, but that's it. In 2021, it's not recommended to disable IPv6. Modern OS's use IPv6 internally, and it can break functions in them. This especially can occur in server OS's like Windows Server 2016/2019. Microsoft does not recommend disabling IPv6 or unchecking the box in Windows either. It just unbinds it from the NIC and doesn't actually disable it completely. In Windows you have to go into the registry and tweak it to disable it. Still not recommended.
Actually you're wrong You need to do your research before you make a comment and accuse people of misinformation You obviously do not understand what is domain name server It's not strictly designed to improve web browsing It also increases your download and upload speed It also helps lower your ping I'm using Google DNS is the most recommended it has overall the best security and it will improve your online gaming forever I have been using it for years I can't simply play online games without it because for some reason my internet service provider optimum doesn't have very good ping🤦♂️
You mentioned it yourself... some modern OS's like Server 16/19 use IPV6 internally. This has nothing to do with the internet connection itself. Setting it to Google DNS or some other big DNS providers generally improves the speed because the ISP's have a bad DNS. Sometimes even gaming over a VPN improves the latency because you may have less hops to the gaming servers. But this is a rare case nowadays.

Downloads in the background? Ps5 downloads full speed in the background unlike ps4 and then all the bandwidth is used up and causes bufferbloat, quite stupid. Like a good router can't even help because it's the same device I think, the ps5 causes this problem to itself.
Hi there, so as of late my PS5 has been experiencing “wired connection” issues. So when I turn my PS5 and say I got to see my PS network status it says “unknown” and the PS store is not accessible. However, if I play say FIFA23 online I play with no problems. I have no idea why the PS store does not connect and my online PS Network status says unknown. My work around is unplugging my LAN cable from the back of my modem and plugging it back in and all of the sudden my status shows “online” and I am able to go shopping. If any one is experiencing this and solved it please let me know. Thank you in advance

Hey bro, I'll mess with the IPv6 settings on my router but do you know how to get my bandwidth up on Call of Duty Cold war on the PS5? a couple of weeks ago it was running at 2500+ kbps and now it's under 1k. I run an xr300 router along with my ISP modem/router provided by cox. I've messed with port forwarding and triggering, I've removed the extra security which made it go from a Moderate NAT Type to an Open NAT on cold war (PS5 is still running on a type 2 NAT regardless of all the settings I've messed with). I don't know what else to do. Running on a CAT8 cable not on wifi.
I’ve just checked my wireless ps5 download speed and it’s showing 98mb. My fibre bb is 500 mb, what should I expect if I move to a wired set up? Is 98mb reasonable enough for online gaming?
The anticipation is the best part man. I remember the feeling for the ps3 and ps4, it was near impossible waiting but when I finally got them I got excited when I remembered I had it. I managed to get a ps5 last November no problem. It was still exciting man but not as much as the previous 2 playstations. Enjoy it when you get one and DO NOT skip astros playroom, it's awesome!

I wish u had a twin that can show us about xbox settings and tips
Is hooking up the ps5 directly to the modem better than hooking it up through the router?
You didn’t explain why IPv6 is causing the issues potentially
I have only experienced slow wifi once on PS5. And that's probably because someone moved the router closer to the ground and further away from where my PS5 is located.
That is correct. It is easier for a wireless signal to travel down than up. Also the further away you are from the router, the likelihood of it moving you to the slower, further reaching frequency of 2.4 Ghz instead of the faster, shorter range 5 Ghz.
Which ethernet cable do you recommend for the PlayStation 5?
Cat 6
Anything will work
Great! Tips, Thanks You so much 😀
Thanks you so much! I went from 32mb/s to 1,5mb/s.
What would you jack up if you change that IPS Setting
Can you help me figure out why my upload is showing no where near the speed i should be getting, its currently showing between 3mbps and 15 and i should be getting over 100mbps. Iv tried everything to my knowledge and i can't figure it out
My only issues that you didn't tell us how to get to those settings cuz I've been trying to and I can't get to them
I'm using a cat 7 wire and it's actually awesome, top speed.
Omg I finally got a ps5 so these videos actually apply to me now😭😭
if i have a cat8 & cat6, which should i use. Heard cat8 is overkill but would that be better than the cat6 anyway. i have 500 download & 20 upload speed. By overkill do they mean if you're not pushing a lot of data through u dont need it cuz it could actually slow it down
Did you find out?
@@omertafightclub3936 no i haven't
I’m wired and when I do a speed test through the built in ps5 test my upload speed is 12mbps while my download is 811mbps. If I go to the www through the ps5 and do a polka speed test I’m like 811 up and 800 down. So something is off with the ps servers.
I have another issue with ps5. I can play online games, download games but most of the time I can't go to PS store to browse games (even the picture of the games don't load). Do you have any suggestions?
What monitor do you have?!
Do you know anything about the series x or just the ps5
Make sure to use a cat 8 Ethernet cable for fastest speeds as wel
just use cat6a because the ps5 can't use cat8 speeds
@@gamecubeplayer I did not know that since I use pc, but the more you know haha thanks for informing me on that
Hi guys,
My Xbox X speed is 250 mbps wifi vs 75 mbps wired, why wired is less?
My ps5 is 70 mbps wired vs 40 mbps wifi, why ps5 stat is 3 times slower than Xbox?
Both are connected to 5Ghz internet.
Hey John any tips how to get a better Wi-Fi signal i live in a apartment with free Wi-Fi but don’t have access to the router . I’m using a tplink Wi-Fi extender it helps but still lags . Is there any better options out there to boost my signal instead of getting the landlord to run a Ethernet cable to me ? Thanks
Would this help with my wired connection that pops up on screen ie connection to net lost suddenly reconnects the lost connection over an over ?
What about upload speed?my ps4 on a wifi with NAT3 is still getting a faster upload speed than my ps5,either thru wired connection or wifi on any NAT type.both consoles also sat next to router
Another video with misinformation about DNS. It has nothing to do with download speeds. It can improve domain name resolution faster, but that's it. In 2021, it's not recommended to disable IPv6. Modern OS's use IPv6 internally, and it can break functions in them. This especially can occur in server OS's like Windows Server 2016/2019. Microsoft does not recommend disabling IPv6 or unchecking the box in Windows either. It just unbinds it from the NIC and doesn't actually disable it completely. In Windows you have to go into the registry and tweak it to disable it. Still not recommended.
Actually you're wrong You need to do your research before you make a comment and accuse people of misinformation You obviously do not understand what is domain name server It's not strictly designed to improve web browsing It also increases your download and upload speed It also helps lower your ping I'm using Google DNS is the most recommended it has overall the best security and it will improve your online gaming forever I have been using it for years I can't simply play online games without it because for some reason my internet service provider optimum doesn't have very good ping🤦♂️
You mentioned it yourself... some modern OS's like Server 16/19 use IPV6 internally. This has nothing to do with the internet connection itself.
Setting it to Google DNS or some other big DNS providers generally improves the speed because the ISP's have a bad DNS.
Sometimes even gaming over a VPN improves the latency because you may have less hops to the gaming servers. But this is a rare case nowadays.
when i switched to wired connection, when i try to turn it back on i have to manually reconnect to the internet. is there a way to fix this?
John you should make video on why the ps5 shuts off while your playing the game. The issue is happening to one of my friends.
@Devin Isaacson 😒
hello I have a question, my internet provider is cox and I have 500 mgps and my modem is connected by ethernet cable to my ps4 but I keep connecting to high ping in warzone, will you have any idea to help me lower the connection to ping. thank you
If I get a PS5 this decade then I will try this.
🤣🤣🤣
Please add tests: before and after
I’m a having a error message for playing gta online saying Files required to play GTA Online could not be downloaded from the Rockstar Games
Service you know how to fix this problem!!
I uses a Direct RJ45 Cable and Gigabit Internet. I want to be able to reduce Latency with Warzone and other FPS Games. You should do a video on that..
Just setup my new PS5 and my download speed is stuck somewhere between 35 to 40 mbs while I have a 350mbs dowload router. When I check my PS4 in another room (even with the same cable) I get a 300+ download speed. Why!?
I get random lag spikes with my ps5 on a wired connection and my speeds and ping in game is great but I still get random lag spikes in cod and stuff. Even my friends in the party chat say my voice is lagging. I never had these issues with my PS4 pro on a wired connection. Please help
Downloads in the background? Ps5 downloads full speed in the background unlike ps4 and then all the bandwidth is used up and causes bufferbloat, quite stupid.
Like a good router can't even help because it's the same device I think, the ps5 causes this problem to itself.
I am having LAN cable popping issue, any help to fix it?
Please do about a video port forwarding for PlayStation network servers
Will do!
Hi there, so as of late my PS5 has been experiencing “wired connection” issues. So when I turn my PS5 and say I got to see my PS network status it says “unknown” and the PS store is not accessible. However, if I play say FIFA23 online I play with no problems. I have no idea why the PS store does not connect and my online PS Network status says unknown. My work around is unplugging my LAN cable from the back of my modem and plugging it back in and all of the sudden my status shows “online” and I am able to go shopping. If any one is experiencing this and solved it please let me know. Thank you in advance
What about the cable connected notification. Is there a fix?
Spectrum coming tomorrow moved to a new place and even with wired my games pick and choose when to have high latency. First time they came out they said speeds are where it’s supposed to be. So idk if it’s servers to blame the internet or my ps5
Thanks John definitely gonna try these
Bro your internet videos are the best
Am working towards getting 1000mbps all because of you videos shout out bro!
I have a cat6 and it isnt lowering my fort ping ingame what should i do?
The real secret to faster internet is buying faster internet lol
I have horrible upload speed when wired and I have faster upload when on wi-fi. any explanation?
What can u do when I play with the Hotspot from your phone? On py4 it wasn't a big problem but on ps5 my internet is to laggy
Thought LAN would be the way to go but alas my LAN keeps disconnecting and reconnecting cleared cache and rebuilt database but problem comes back.
Also can use port forward TCP/UDP Playstation Network on BGW210 and connected LAN on PS5 online no lagging no disconnect 👍🏻
Hey John, I just disabled the IPv6 and will see as I'm facing lagging issues while playing
Most likely won't help with lagging, but will help if you experience WiFi disconnects frequently
@@JohnGlasscock Thanks man appreciate it
Hey bro, I'll mess with the IPv6 settings on my router but do you know how to get my bandwidth up on Call of Duty Cold war on the PS5? a couple of weeks ago it was running at 2500+ kbps and now it's under 1k. I run an xr300 router along with my ISP modem/router provided by cox. I've messed with port forwarding and triggering, I've removed the extra security which made it go from a Moderate NAT Type to an Open NAT on cold war (PS5 is still running on a type 2 NAT regardless of all the settings I've messed with). I don't know what else to do. Running on a CAT8 cable not on wifi.
Needed this a couple weeks ago
what’s the best ethernet cable for ps5
I’ve just checked my wireless ps5 download speed and it’s showing 98mb. My fibre bb is 500 mb, what should I expect if I move to a wired set up? Is 98mb reasonable enough for online gaming?
Dude your missing out on 400 mbps
Wired will alway give you the best connection. Kinda common sense I would think.
The anticipation is the best part man. I remember the feeling for the ps3 and ps4, it was near impossible waiting but when I finally got them I got excited when I remembered I had it. I managed to get a ps5 last November no problem. It was still exciting man but not as much as the previous 2 playstations. Enjoy it when you get one and DO NOT skip astros playroom, it's awesome!
Well my room is upstairs and the router is downstairs, wired for me isn’t an option
