psn speed

[#1]

What throughput do people get downloading of PSN?
is kind of annoying to have a 70mbit+ connection and throughput maxing out at about 10mbit/sec.

[#2]

I get about 55/8 mb but peak times it can be slower.
This is probably due to limits / demand on the Sony side though.

[#3]

yeah it's pretty woeful on all 3 of my devices (3/4/vita) don't think it's PN though.

[#4]

I've never seen full speed on our ps3, I think the best i've seen is 18/4 Lan or wifi, but then again.. the wifi only runs @54mbps
What is that about 2.5mbps stream... hmmm.

[#5]

mine was flatlining at 10mbps, using asuswrt to watch it, its via ethernet.
Disappointing, whilst on steam last night I downloaded final fantasy 13 at line speed a 60 gig game, so psn seems behind the times, unless its a peering issue.

[#6]

That was an iplayer stream, in comparison a standard youtube stream for me would be around 10mbps, thats over wifi!

[#7]

faster psn speeds? bridge your console to ur pc then use a proxy server   

[#8]

this i something you tried that worked? if yes what does it suggest?

Can't comment on the PSN but I did get the latest BF4 patch on the PC the other week, I was smiling when I saw what I was getting it at!

[#10]

ya i got 18mb from origen the other day only ment to get around 8mb from a 70mbs connection so i was happy.

[#11]

I never get full speed on PSN PS3 is worse than PS4 despite both using ethernet, however Steam and Origin both download at full speed so i know it's not something at my end causing the issue, I can only guess that Sony limit bandwidth on their network or as mentioned maybe a routing thing hard to say, I have tried port forwarding etc but it makes no difference.   

[#12]

well out of curiosity I added one of my proxies to my ps3 and bam suddenly games come down at 40-50mbit instead of 5-10mbit, whats going on with the direct routing?

[#13]

i did say to use proxy 

[#14]

how do you set the ps4 up to use proxy sorry not 100% sure on how to do it

[#15]

I dont have a ps4 but on the ps3 you do it by choosing custom network settings, and flick through the questions it gives you, one of them it asks if you want to use a proxy and then allows you to enter the details.
Absolutely huge difference in performance using my proxy, it looks like either poor peering or some throttling of PSN going on.
