To use this tool you need to visit the website, download the free application and then run the DNS test. Gamers based in the US can use the quick test; someone based in another part of the world may want to run the fuller test that takes around half an hour and tests DNS servers from all over the world to find the two best ones for your location.
In some cases using Custom DNS servers can give a noticeable enough improvement in bandwidth to make it worth changing them. If you really like the results you get from using a certain custom pair of DNS servers, then you can even put them into your router so that all the devices in your house can use them.
See here for an article how to do this for some popular routers. This is another very common reason why PS4 downloads can go slower than expected — there are simply a lot of people using the internet at the same time in the home and more generally , and this can increase network congestion and increase the time it takes for downloads to complete.
This problem is worse on Wi-Fi, because it is more prone to congestion. A router can only handle traffic demands on Wi-Fi sequentially, in a queue based system, and not simultaneously. More devices connecting equals more traffic demands, equals longer downloads, as the router can only do so much at once and has to keep everyone happy.
However, there is a setting called Quality of Service or QoS, which you can try and use on your router to manage traffic and prioritize your PS4 on the home network.
This is a setting which can tell your router to handle all traffic demands from your PS4 first, before anything else. It is mainly used to reduce ping on busy networks; nevertheless you can try it if you like to see if it also improves download speeds as well at busy peak times. Nevertheless, it is good practice to use QoS to reduce ping at least on busy networks, and may offer some help with download speeds.
More generally, it is also true that downloads can run slower more generally at peak internet use time evenings and weekends , when lots of people are indoors and using the internet.
One thing that can commonly catch people out is not realizing the difference between download speeds and file sizes. This is something that caught me out when I was expecting a patch download to be completed in seconds when in fact it took many minutes. Put simply, download speeds from your ISP are measured in megabits per seconds, whereas file sizes are measured in megabytes or gigabytes, a much larger unit of data.
A bit is eight times smaller than byte, and therefore a megabit is eight times smaller than a megabyte, and a thousand times smaller still than a gigabyte. There are megabits in a Gigabyte so this gives some idea of why large downloads can take so long.
