known2FAIL 08/22/19 1:54:23 PM #1:	WTF? Its BRUTAL. Its taking me 1 hour and 45 minutes to download 36GBs on PS4. My Xbox would take about 1 hour and my PC? Probably like 30 minutes MAX. This shit is so long that it is beyond frustrating. Im glad it collects dust outside of certain games because I would be fuming over this download speed for games and patches --- I don't know why I'm playing Destiny 2... but I am... <cite>known2FAIL posted [p:926407178] in Why does i...

Shinnokxz 08/22/19 2:23:40 PM #9:	I don't even own a PS4 and I recommended a friend set a static IP (no DHCP get) with custom DNS servers (I recommended 1.1.1.1 which are the fastest out right now, and 4.4.4.4 if a secondary is required) and according to him it's much faster now. <cite>Shinnokxz posted [p:926408386] in Why does i...

The other day I was downloadin' some shit on the ps4 and it was downloading at 1mb a second and estimated 1 hour remaining. And then I put it in rest mode and 15 min later it was done downloading. That doesn't prove anything, but it's valuable data. So wait you guys are saying Rest Mode itself potentially dramatically speeds up downloading?
