If you are only using Wi-Fi because you are too far away from the router to run an ethernet cable directly, then a Powerline Adapter could be a good solution to this problem. These are clever home networking devices which allow for a wired ethernet connection to your router, even when you are several rooms away from it. They consist of a pair of adapter plugs, one of which is plugged in and connected to your router, the other of which is plugged in and connected to your device. The two plugs then communicate through the electrical wiring of the house to deliver a strong, wired, internet connection to any part of the home.
They are plug and play devices with no complex setup or DIY and will work in any house where the circuitry is wired normally and in good condition. Click here to view on Amazon. It will provide a solid, wired ethernet connection to your router using the existing electrical wiring of your house.

Powerline adapters can be an excellent solution in this case, since they allow for a wired connection directly to your router using the house circuitry, which means you can extract the maximum possible bandwidth out of your internet to get your files downloaded faster. Powerline adapters will work in the majority of houses where the circuitry is wired correctly and still in good condition.
In a smaller number of cases they may not work; see our article on these cases. In most modern and semi modern houses you should be fine. Where the house wiring is in good condition, they can deliver a connection almost as good as if you were plugged into the router directly, which is exactly what gamers need for low latency and downloading large files.
Ethernet connections will always be faster than Wi-Fi for downloads. But please note that SSD drives can't eliminate PS4 copying update file process, although it might shorten it. Besides, before you decide to switch to SSD drives, I recommend you to check the interface that your PS4 console uses. If your PS4 console has been used for many years, it may full of errors or bad sectors. These will slow down the drive's performance.
If so, I recommend you to format the drive to fix these errors. He loves video games, but he's even more interested in the people who make and play them.

By Camden Jones Published Feb 13, Power down your console, unplug all cords, and hold the power button down for 30 seconds. Then, let it sit for at least two minutes before reattaching all the cables and powering on your system.
Reinstall — Even physical games are installed on your console. Eject the game, and navigate to its on-screen icon. We wanted to test the install times of both new consoles, so we plugged a PS4 into an Xbox One's TV input and watched them race to install a game. You can see in our video, there's a big difference in the two systems. Both the Xbox One and PS4 require all games to be installed from the disc, due to the increasing size of games and the relatively low speed of optical drives.
So both consoles have a feature that allows you to launch a game as soon as enough content is installed to begin running it, while the rest of the data continues to install in the background. Our test was how long it takes to launch the game from the time you insert a disc, with a normal console connected to the internet.
We tested six multiplatform games on both consoles and every time, the PS4 was under a minute while the Xbox One install was several minutes long and required downloading an update before beginning the installation. When you include downloading those updates for each Xbox One game that happen in the background on PS4, the install times can get as high as fifteen minutes before you can even launch the game.
Remember that this is only a test of how long the games initially take to install. Once the games are fully installed, they take about the same amount of time to boot up on either console. So here's the general idea: You put in a game to install it, a progress bar comes up, and at some point you can launch the game and start playing while it keeps installing.
