The above image is a example.
Once you’re done testing, write down the two fastest nameservers (marked Primary and Secondary on the top right of the web page that will be opened automatically, as you can see above) and open the settings menu of your PS4, then follow the steps below:
- Go to “Network”
- Go to “Set up Internet Connection”
- Select “Use Wi-Fi” or “Use a LAN Cable” depending on whether you’re connected on wireless or via ethernet cable.
- Select “Custom”
- Select “Automatic”
- Select “
o Not Specify”
- Select “Manual”
- Insert the two numbers you got before as your “Primary DNS” and “Secondary DNS” (don’t use those in the picture above, as they’re specific for me and showcased just as an example)
- Select “Automatic”
- Select “o Not Use”
Also Works on xbox too.
