Tips and tricks to hopefully get your PS4/PS3 downloading games and updates a bit faster.

Download speeds on PSN for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 are notoriously up and down, and with game downloads now often exceeding 40GB, slow speeds can be a nightmare. While there's no definitive solution to get better download speeds, there are numerous hints and tips that are reported to work. If you're having problems with PSN not giving you the download speed your connection allows, give a few of these a try.

1. Pause and resume your download.

This might sound stupid, but numerous people report that doing this, often numerous times, will eventually end up with your download speed increasing.

2. Connect to the internet via a wire

This might not be easy for everyone, but as a general rule you get better download speeds on your PS3 and PS4 by using a wired connection. If your console isn't in reach of your router, look into setting up a wired network using powerline adapters.

3. Change your DNS settings

Again, this doesn't seem to be a solution for everyone but changing your DNS settings to Google's Public DNS seems to help. To do this, navigate to your console's Network settings and set up your internet connection - choose manual when asked about DNS.

Use the following settings:

Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8

Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4

4. Put your PS4 in Rest Mode
