    It's only useful for name resolving, that is loading a page faster on your browser. Your internet won't actually be faster when downloading. You could check if the best MTU size settings are set on your router/computer which could really help on the speed if it isn't.

  • @JasonWh
    @JasonWh Před 10 měsíci +8

    As the owner of a Cybersecurity Services Provider, moving to Cloudflare has more benefits than just speed. If one uses the provider's DNS server, the presented search results can be manipulated due to ad purchase and control by the provider. This is a big part of their revenue stream. Be careful with DNS over HTTPS until the security of it matures.

      As Squip stated, you won't really see a difference in how long a large download takes. However, where you will really see a speed boost is in web browsing, as pages will start loading faster. As there is usually very little data transferred, most the wait time is in the initialization, which a faster DNS will mitigate perfectly.

      Changing DNS servers can speed up the amount of time it takes to resolve a domain name/website. But it won't speed up your overall internet connection. For example, you won't see an improvement in average download speeds for streaming content or downloading large files

Many companies, that is to say pretty much ANY company on the internet, either buy or sell users data when a service is free(or even paid). It's not even hidden or denied by companies. This isn't a charity service and Cloudflare isn't a charity org. As for this being some sort of advertisement, completely ludicrous statement considering Cloudflare's main customers are large businesses, not end users. This is an end user service.

      That should be the case definitely, as the games do not require as much data per sec.. depending on the game as well sometimes...
      The game requests only what is required and it is generally 100 KBs of data per sec.. so naturally it doesn't use all that 1.5MBps just 0.1MBps would do good
      Actually the gaming speed depends on the latency of your server (depending on your location or your ISP etc.) and the specs of your network drive.. check out their video on latency to get more info on that.

I just fixed my ps4 pro today tho by using a small trick that does kinda help. My ps4 went from lagging out and leaving the party and game every 10 mins to working smoothly for a few hours then I got off the game. Basically just turn off the ps4 then once it’s settled down press the power button until you hear it beep the 2nd time. Once it’s done I believe it should turn on by itself but if it doesn’t just turn it on again and your done. If that doesn’t work I don’t know what else to tell you but good luck.
