There were several key takeaways from our testing. In our testing we discovered that using the 5 GHz band is essential if you want fast WiFi speeds.
We tested the PS5 console using several routers of varying price points and got vastly different results, ranging from less than 40 Mbps in download speed all the way up to over 850 Mbps. That said ethernet is not an option for everyone and there are a number of ways to improve your WiFi connection on the Sony PlayStation 5 console.
It may triple your download speed and cut your latency in half. I hope you get some answers and that it does improve for you.Ethernet vs WiFi? Is a wired connection really worth it for gaming on PS5 or is WiFi good enough? The short answer is yes ethernet is totally worth it on PS5. One thing I have found since upgrading to Unifi is the stability of the connection is so much better, I was running a Langear Night hawk before upgrading and it was dropping the connection every few days, it would recover but its a pain in a55 when you are watching something and you have to either sit and wait or pull the cord.
#UNIFI DOWNLOAD SPEED TEST UPGRADE#
Im still happy with the service, I was happy at 350mbps but they offered me the upgrade and it was a fiver a month. I do find first thing in the morning is the fastest time, I don't know if this corresponds to the Americans being in bed, but speed definitely reduces between 11 and 1pm when they are getting up and now (19:03) is probably one of the slowest times for me. I don't think I have ever gotten anywhere near the advertised speed.

I do use IDS and a traffic monitor, plus I run a couple of VPN tunnels at home and we do use Netflix and prime quite a bit. On speed test just after I ran this I got 485 down and 31up.

I use a UDM pro and have a 1.3Gb service, my regular speed test from the UDM is hitting
#UNIFI DOWNLOAD SPEED TEST PC#
fyI - I’ve tried different cables from the USG to the PC and it’s still always around the same speed. So it seems, I’m back to that approx 120 mbps limitation.
Power up the PC and wait, (check ipconfig I can see it has a local 192.168.1.x address so the USG is now in the middle acting as a router)ĩ) I open chrome browser and run Samknows speed test (broadband .uk - which returns 17.5 latency, 123.3 mbps download and 39.8 mbps upload. (I assume that is the end)ģ) powered on the PC (which is now fully exposed to the internet) - running ipconfig from the command line shows I have an 80.x.x.x IP.Ĥ) I open chrome browser and run Samknows speed test (broadband .uk - which returns 16.4 latency, 553 mbps download and 38.4 mbps upload.Īll looks good, now I somehow need to get my Unifi to see the same thing, so let’s start again and put the Unifi in between.ĥ) Power off the Hub4, connect the same cable that went into the PC earlier into the WAN port of the USG3 ( which is also powered off.) and now plug a new cable into the LAN port of the USG and put that into the PC (which is not powered on)Ħ) power up the Hub4, wait for that to finish againħ) power up the USG3, wait for that to finish (i had to try this a couple of times, keeping in mind to led on the Unifi won’t turn blue as it’s not able to see the controller.) Ok, the weekend is here and I have some time to do some testing.ġ) powered down the Hub4 (which is already in modem mode) and connected it directly to a PC (which is not powered on)Ģ) powered on the Hub4 - I wish the led ring would progress through colours whilst it’s booting up, The led ring eventually starts slowing fading on and off, then a quick flash and it stays on.
