From there go to Set Up Internet Connection, and select either WiFi or LAN cable depending on what you're using. Open up the Settings on your PS4, then go to Network.To update your DNS settings follow the steps below: In some cases using a different DNS can help with connection issues. The DNS is like the address book your device is using to determine the route it's taking to its destination. I'd like to see if updating your DNS settings has any effect. There are some other things we can try that might help with this. Hi for following up! I'm sorry to hear that you're still running into trouble.
Connecting my PlayStation directly to the router is out of the question because it is my landlords internet I'm using, and it's in his section of the house - I live beneath him. If anyone has any suggestions on what to do, or how to limit the amount of lag, that would be awesome. Apex uses 200 MB per hour - I suck at math, so I don't know if my WiFi is even compatible with this - other than that, there is nothing that should be making the game lag this badly, it even lags in the lobby too.
My internet is currently running at 13.8 mbps download and 5.77 mbps upload speed. I do live in a literal village, so my WiFi isn't the best in the world, but I was able to play the game on 1.0 Mbps worth of upload speed. I usually play the game when no-one is home, there are maybe three, maybe four devices connected to the internet at a time, and none of them are chugging the internet. I get pretty much all the errors that come with the game - mainly latency error, packet loss, and congestion. I've gone as far as seeing if my console needed to be updated or if the game itself needed to be. I'm currently in the process of re-downloading my game in hopes that helps. I've restarted my PlayStation when the lag happens, disconnect my PS4 from the internet and re-connected it, restarted my router, tried different servers - nothing seems to work. My game has been lagging incredibly badly for the past two-months - I've done just about everything to try and fix the lag.

Neriher Playstation nor Xbox or even PC will give you an advantage for such speeds, ping is king. Gigabit network is still extremely rare, even here in Sweden where it's readily available few pay for it since it has no purpose unless you move lots of data, whole movies worth, every hour. As for speed test the one on Ps4 is notoriously unreliable and, unlike a Mac speed test, doesn't point you towards the closest server for best result. Higher speed won't give you lower ping and hence won't affect gaming unless you have several other downloads happening simultaneously.
