And you have the PS4 connected with an Ethernet cable? Wireless is notorious for causing gaming lag.

If you are using wireless, you have a couple of choices (assuming that you cannot make an Ethernet cable connection): add a wireless AP near the PS4 or buy a good pair of powerline adapters (like the Zyxel PLA5205kit).

I have the same exact problem w ps4. I'm getting 57mbps download and 12 Mbps upload on speed test w my PC, but w ps4 using an Ethernet cable I'm only getting like 13mbps DL and 4 Mbps UL. And this is AFTER I port forwarded my router to help out the PS4. Apparently a lot of people are having this problem. If anyone knows how to fix this please post an answer.

I am not sure what to do either. I have Zito Media and have 50mbps and get that with my PC but my PS4 only gets 8.6mbps. so what do I have to do to make it faster?

This is still a well known problem for the PS4 (slow Ethernet connections). The only thing that I've seen that some say helps is to change your DNS setting in the PS4 to the Google public DNS servers (primary 8.8.8.8 and secondary 8.8.4.4), so you might give it a try.

its the ps4 that is restricting your internet. the ps4 has a firewall inside it that unfortunately slows down internet speeds immensely. I have fios at 50/50 and average 68/68 on my pc but on my ps4 its 25/1.
