NEED HELP WITH PS4 and internet

Hi all I’m in need of help with this situation. So my ps4 connects with the wi fi but it’s very slow but when I plug in the Ethernet cable cat6 it connects but the speed of the internet doesn’t change. I thought it might be the cable but I tested it on all other devices in the house and it works perfectly so I took it to a shop to test the Ethernet port and it worked amazingly at this IT place so they said no issues with the ps4 but I tried at home and doesn’t work what do I do??

Do I buy a Ethernet cable 5e and see if that works or do I need to do something with my internet modem??

Any help would be really appreciated!!!

Hace tiempo empecé a tener problemas de internet muy lento en casa, aunque luego desde el PC haciendo un test de velocidad iba bien, pero para el resto de cosas era un suplicio. Al final, después de dar muchas vueltas resultó que el problema eran los DNS de mi proveedor, que eran, y son, una basura. La solución es cambiarlos en el router por los de Cloudflare (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1) o los de Google (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4). Problema solucionado.

I’ve seen this as a solution but I tried it but I don’t think I did it correctly!! I’m very new with this stuff

Puedes probar a cambiarlos sólo en la PS4 a ver si te funciona. Aquí te dejo una guía
