How to boost internet speed on PS5?

[Prakhar02]

I'm looking for tips to improve my internet speed on my PS5. I've been experiencing some lag and slow download times lately.

Any advice on optimizing network settings, router configurations, or anything else that might help?

To boost PS5 internet speed, use a wired connection, switch to 5GHz Wi-Fi, and set Google (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) DNS. Restart your router, reduce network congestion, and enable QoS for gaming priority. Use Rest Mode for faster downloads. If issues persist, contact your ISP.
