If you're looking to get the most out of your PlayStation 4 gaming experience, then you may want to consider changing up the Domain Name System (DNS) server on your console. DNS servers are what allow your console to connect to websites and online gaming services, so it's important to have one that can provide fast speeds without sacrificing security or reliability.
The first step in finding a fast DNS server for your PS4 is to determine where you are geographically located in relation to the available servers. Many providers offer servers located in different countries or regions, which can affect the speed of service depending on how far away they are from you. You can do this quickly by visiting websites like What Is My IP Address? or an IP geolocator, which will tell you exactly where your connection is coming from.
Once you know where you're geographically located there are several options available when it comes to choosing a provider. Google's public DNS service is probably the most popular choice thanks to its excellent speed and reliable uptime record as well as built-in protection against malicious attempts at accessing data over public networks such as those found in coffee shops or libraries.
Other popular choices include OpenDNS (a free option), Cloudflare (free with paid subscription options), and Quad 9 (a secure, privacy-focused solution). All three have excellent speed ratings and generally provide reliable performance when used with a PS4 console and router setup.
Once you've chosen a provider, setting up your new server is easy – simply enter the address provided into your PS4 settings menu under Network Settings > Set Up Internet Connection > Custom and select automatic settings for everything else except for “Set DNS” where you'll need to input the corresponding numbers provided by the provider in order to finish configuring your new connection.
By following these steps, you should now be able access games faster than ever before while also enjoying increased security features due to having a higher quality DNS associated with your console!
