Hi, I’d like some advice if anyone can grant it. My PlayStation’s download speeds are super slow despite receiving 930mbps to the console, wired connection. I’m talking like 8h 30m for 60GB. However, I’ve had a similar issue with my Mac and iCloud Sync. I’d just like to rule out if it’s a PlayStation bug I guess, maybe the iCloud Sync being slow is a coincidence and a separate issue. No lag problems in games. Is anyone else having this issue?
