For anyone seeing my comment. I always play gaming online for PS4 and my family sometimes lags me. I tried many DNS and the best one for me is actually EarthLink DNS Servers Primary DNS: 207.69.188.185 - Secondary DNS: 207.69.188.186. I am wifi as I cannot do lan/wired. I am getting 9-15 Mbps Download and like 2-3 Mbps upload. Download is what matters the most. Apex Legends has been less laggy and hardly no package loss. DNS varies for people based on their locations. EarthLink is good for me but may be bad for you. However, give it a try.
Holy smokes. It worked. I have FiOS 300 down and up to my appliances downstairs, but up stairs I only had 36 down 11 up. I purchased a wifi extender with a Lan connection, linked it to my PS4 and saw a marginal improvement. When I tried your set up using Wi-Fi and not the Lan, I now have 217 down 76 up. I'm returning the wifi extender asap.
@@colevgreen1464 before everything I was getting between 1-3mbps down and 200-400kbps up. CloudFlare brought me to 5.1 down, 1.1 up. Not great numbers by any stretch, but when you're running off rural DSL, every MB helps.
All I want from this video is for my internet not to keep disconnecting over and over and over all day long and it's getting so annoying to the point where I'm about it start ragging
Cloud flare was the best for tn the area I live in anyway thanks alot man like and sub I jumped up 60 to 90 mbps thanks sooo much keep up the great work
Hello Jonh! sorry for that big text. do you believe it is necessary for me to use a DNS other than my ISP? My Plan is 240Mbps Down and 20Mbps UP (QOS on my router is 70% Ps4 higher) and speeds always beat between 190Down / 8Mbps * UP * on PS4 using my operator's DNS. already When I use Google DNS or OpenDns My Upload is no more than 3Mbps. my doubt is, if these DNS really different from our ISP improves our experience during online games or just in the probability of increasing the speed of downloading games. sorry my ingles
Thank you so much, I’m genuinely surprised to find a video like this that works, it would always say that the dns wasn’t connecting, so I’d go to the settings, try to fix it, then get confused and give up. I definitely took too long to just look up a video on how to fix it
Sorry if this was already asked but this was just recommended to me today and I've been looking to get the most out of my router. Does changing the DNS affect the connection's security at all? I'm all for maximizing speed but not looking to leave myself or my personal info vulnerable
My download went from 49 hours to 34 thank you BTW I've been downloading this game for 4 days now still have 2 days to go so quit complaining about ur wifi
If your router is already set to use one of these public DNS, does setting it manually on the PS4 as well make any difference or is on the router enough?
I have google fiber but the dns server you provided by google dns seemed to be the fastest for me instead of my actual server through my internet provider which is google fiber. Thanks for your help. I was sitting on my chair for 4 hours waiting for anything to happen but after watching your video and testing each on my own your video and Google DNS I actually downloaded 3/4 of a whole game in the last 20 minutes thank you very much for your help and your advice
How is this telling you the optimal DNS server? The optimal DNS server for gaming would be the one with the lowest ping. This is simply a bandwidth test. Generally your choice in DNS server doesn't affect your bandwidth. Any fluctuation in speeds are likely related to your ISP and have nothing to do with your DNS. Your other video actually tests for the fastest DNS in the proper way.

I’ve been testing Google’s dns and open dns for a while, I’m not sure of which to choose as I always get similar results. I keep switching back and forth, I believe it depends on your location. However, so far those are the best I’ve found.
Download DNS Benchmark,,, press Nameservers. Let it load then press Run Benchmark. It will then have. DNS Servers in your area, use the one all the way up the top. *DO NOT USE ANY OF THE BAD ONES THE COLOR IS BROWN FOR THE BAD DNS SERVER*
I live in Australia and the second one agave me the best that I could find anywhere, 10mbps is not the best but it is equal to 35 latency for cod warzone which is good, thanks for the guide
Trust me, I’ve tried every DNS server and none of them really made a influential difference. Therefore I created my own 5.0ghz and 2.4ghz band by buying a booster. Buy any booster you want as well as a stable Ethernet cable to install into your booster and your PS4. I promise you, you will not lag as your on a stable wired connection and on your own separate connection.
