Forums - Sony - Anybody else find the PSN to be very slow...especially lately?

Well, I haven't had any problems as of late. Ran smooth and moderately fast when I downloaded WipeOut HD and FEAR 2. Maybe it's your internet connection.



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Guidelines to understanding my train of thought:

  • THE METAL GEAR SOLID FRANCHISE IS THE BEST THING TO HIT THE PLANET SINCE THE PS3!! THUS, MGS FRANCHISE >> SLICED-BREAD.
  • Solid Snake shall and well always shove 1up mushrooms up Mario's ass. 
  • Solid Snake shall and well always decimate Master Chief with a flurry of rocket launchers, shotgun rounds, and a 20 minute monologue.

I know you guys who are saying, "it's probably your internet" are just trying to help, but I'm telling you...all other facets of my online work properly. My computer internet is fine. My online games via PS3 is fine. It's the PSN and any downloads I do from the Playstation Store that are slow as molasses.



Keep this in mind when reading what I type...

I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.

mine is very inconsistant sometimes its real fast sometimes its real slow so i dont know whats going on with that

Since some people don't experience problems, it could be different servers, now i'm assuming that PSN has multiple servers, that have different number of people on them. Also, i'd think Home eats a lot of bandwidth from the server, so if a certain server has lately had a big increase in the number of users, that could case the slowing down.

Have you tried downloading things with your PC to see how fast it gets?

If it took 24 hours to get 1 GB, that's about 12 KB/s which is very slow.
