My question is whether I have slow internet on Ps4 or is it normal. I've always had the feeling that my Ps4 downloads games and updates far too slowly (despite a LAN cable). My connection speed (download) is 1.8 Mbit / s and the connection speed (upload) is 1.4 Mbit / s. Is it extremely slow and if so what can I do about it?
This is lame for downloads and sometimes for online gaming. Connect your PS with a LAN cable, place it near your router or buy a Wi-Fi amplifier.
Despite Lan cable I have such conditions. Are there different types of lan cables?
I don't know exactly, but I don't think so. Is your internet generally so slow or does the Playstation only receive so little?
Yes, even for an internet developing country like Germany, this is extremely slow, provided that it really is 1.8 mbit / s and not 1.8 mb / s.
you should first find out in your contract documents of the internet connection what internet speed you are contractually entitled to.
1.8 Mbit / s = 0.2 MB / s
It is extremely slow that you can play online without any problems at all is a miracle.
I used to have 8 Mbit / s = 1 MB / s and that was pretty lame
Now I have 20 Mbit / s = 2.5 MB / s and now others can also watch YouTube without it jerky
No, ANOTHER LAN cable can't boost the speed, there are no differences.
