Best MTU Settings For PS4 - Is It REALLY Better For Internet Speeds or Online Matchmaking?
Ғылым және технология
In this video, I share step-by-step how to adjust the MTU settings when connecting your PS4 to your internet router or LAN connection online. Along the way I explain if certain MTU settings are better than others and how you can dial in and test the best number that works for you. Stick around because I also share one cool trick I discovered with a certain MTU setting that allowed me to boost my productivity in GTA Online, and could very well work in other games too!

Also loved the GTA tip. We used to just bounce around until we got a solo but they are so hard to get now, have regularly bounced for over an hour and still no solo. Your trick was very helpful indeed.

Hey man, I'm so grateful for you're trick, thanks for the video, I'm now one of you're best fans in Martinique.
I’m currently using the ps5 and none of y’all may not know the answer to this but I’m still having trouble finding my optimum mtu because there is no question or statement that pops up saying my packets can’t be fragmented which makes it harder for me to decide what mtu I should use and how far down I should go because what I do is I start a 1500 and go down 10 each time but I’m still confused on how far down I should even go.or if I should change this setting on my ps5 at all so anyone that has the ps5 with the feedback to answer this question let me know it would be greatly appreciated

@JohnHammer
3 жыл бұрын
Thank you Rishi! I would adjust each one separately, so keep MTU at 1500 and adjust dns to Google or CloudFlare first. If the DNS helps, then start adjusting the MTU a few steps lower (around 1400, 1300, 1200, etc.) and see if that boosts the improvement over the new DNS
Find your vids extremely helpful, and good wholesome fun ;D

What do I do for proxy server
Works thanks
MTU max transmission units the amount of bytes it can deliver in packets to each end device on the connected server through proxies higher the more data you can send to lessen lag lower less packets to other end devices hence solo lobbies your connection self terminates others connections without sacrificing the server connection due to it only being sending that is retarded not the connection

@JohnHammer

Zomi Internet speeds vary throughout the day for a variety of reasons, but one big one is that the total load on your ISP's server can be higher during morning hours (businesses, neighbors, etc.) therefore reducing the speeds that you individually can capture during that time.
