I couldnt get privoxy to work, you used a windows computer right?
Yeah. It didn't work at first for me so try rebooting and when you run Privoxy, you should get a firewall notification on windows to allow or deny it on the firewall. Once I did that Privoxy worked.

Everything else is straight forward if you followed the little guide(which is honestly very simple.)

This is a dumbass thread...

I've never understood why people with consoles or desktops go with wireless connections. Don't give me the setup excuse either, figure it out.

Plugged in or nothing when it comes to consoles or desktops.

Only Laptops and mobiles for wireless

Goto speedof.me on your PS Browser and see what you get too. Obviously there isn't a cap, but pinging their servers looking strange in the light.

Where you at in the A?

I read through the thread and i was getting worse results through the browser on speed of.me, like 25-30 mbps


Edit, oh I'm in Ellenwood

Well because most people have their consoles in the living entertainment area or man cave. The majority of the time the router may be in a office or etc...

My shyt is wired but that's because I have my entire entertainment area in one place.

Just read through this thread, and cotdamn the TS is on some shyt. Cheap ethernet ports :snoop: Ignoring one posters pics that contradicts his agenda, then propping another posters pics that supports his agenda :snoop: then the 2nd posters pics being on a PS3 and not a PS4 :snoop: running to a mod for no reason trying to get a poster banned out of the thread cause that poster has continually shytted on him :snoop:

Anyways, as far as the topic goes, I don't understand anyone that doesnt hardwire their system to begin with. Gaming on wireless tells me you're an idiot. I've never had speed issues with any of my systems (360/PS3/PS4) UNTIL I downloaded the Black Ops 3 Beta, which took FOR-EVER. I'm sure that has to do with the amount of ppl that were doing the same, but still, it literally made me not want to play the Beta, which I ended up doing (NOT playing, that is).

Also, ppl posting speedtests, then PS4 tests is pointless. When you speedtest, usually it defaults to a server closest to you, while who knows what Sony is using to test your shyt. It even tells you they're only estimates.

One other thing that ppl should be aware of, is with newer routers, there are features built in to prioritize network traffic (called Q(uality) o(f) S(ervice)). I can't remember if my shyt came enabled by default or not, but I've tinkered with it. For instance, I have my AppleTV (which I use for streaming most of my stuff) set as the higheset priority. Right now I'm watching a baseball game on it, and if I try to download something on my CPU, it will most likely be slow as shyt, unless I stop streaming the game. Using torrents or newsgroups shows how it works perfectly, as once I back out of MLB.TV, the speeds jump up instantly. Just another thing to keep in mind.

:dwillhuh: I was joking about the mod shyt and I mention why I didn't believe @Fatboi1 at first even gabs him rep when he explained. Get out your feelings and instead of port I was referring to adapter/card/Hardware.

I don't lag at all, and I play on a wireless connection.

My modem is in my office, my PS4 is downstairs in the Mancave.
