Yes, it allows everything that is not important to close and allows more effort in the download or update. Not Helpful 23 Helpful Wouldn't reducing it to slow it down? This decreases the maximum packet size. If the packets are too large, you can end up with lost packets. Not Helpful 32 Helpful Not Helpful 14 Helpful No, however if you decrease it to , it will give you shorter download speeds.
Not Helpful 46 Helpful Not Helpful 34 Helpful The country does not matter. I live in Canada and it works fine. Not Helpful 7 Helpful Would turning off WiFi on some of my devices help the download process speed up? Not Helpful 10 Helpful It Increases the size of packets, but makes it slower, so decreasing it is the best thing to do.
Not Helpful 11 Helpful It just depends on how many people or devices are active during your night and day schedule. Not Helpful 4 Helpful At least in my experience, my account was hacked after I modified, but I don't know if that's typical. Sony support was able to help me restore it though.
Not Helpful 94 Helpful The easiest and fastest way to increase your download speed is to run a speed test. If your speed score is fast — around Mbps — this indicates that your slow download speed has nothing to do with the internet.
If your speed score is low — below Mbps — this could be an indication that the internet may be the problem. Keep in mind that your speeds vary depending on the number of users that are on your network at a time. Depending on your service provider, your internet connection may not be able to handle large downloads. Slow download speed can be frustrating and it may be worth it to upgrade to a plan with higher speeds, especially if your household has multiple people and devices.
Explore your options and see if there are packages available that can support a higher volume of data. The more people and devices you have connected to your internet, the slower the connection can be. When downloading, try disconnecting any other devices, like smart TVs , iPads, and phones for the time being. This may increase your internet and download speed significantly. Similarly, you should disable any applications on your device when downloading. The applications you have running on your computer can take up a good chunk of your bandwidth, which can contribute to slower speeds.
For example, video streaming services like Netflix use a heavy amount of bandwidth. Temporarily disable the apps and see if that helps. To make it easier, try downloading one file at a time. Though this may seem counterintuitive, it can end up saving time. A router not only allows you to connect multiple devices, but it also acts as an antenna to extend the range of the Wi-Fi throughout your home. The modem you have is typically provided by your service provider.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your modem. If your download speed has been significantly slow and you saw no change in speed after restarting, it may be time for a new modem. If your speed increases when you are directly next to the modem, this is a good sign, in which case your router may be the issue.
Then we had to figure out just how many gigabytes make up an average modern game these days. For this, we relied on Sony's own regularly updated list of top-selling PlayStation software. For each year, we used each platform's top best-selling games for December as a reasonably representative cross-section of the console's software library for that year for , we used the list of top sellers for April. This number doesn't include the size of any subsequent patches or DLC that might be needed to play the game, and download sizes for games on other platforms may look somewhat different.
Still, it provides a good baseline look at how game size has changed over time. Data in hand, we can see some broad trends in the relative growth of download speed and game size going back to middle of the PS3 era. Back then, the size of top-selling downloads increased sixfold from to Fig. This seems to reflect a transition from players primarily downloading smaller indie darlings to the growing popularity of "full game downloads" for retail releases like the 27GB The Last of Us and the 24GB Destiny Fig.
While things started to balance out again by , the noisy data doesn't exactly paint a great picture for time spent waiting for games downloads on the PS3. Read more of Logan's articles. By Logan Moore. October 25, Have something to tell us about this article?
