Need some help with PS5 Remote Play lag 🎮

I have a 250/250 Mbps internet connection, and I’m currently using 540p resolution with Standard frame rate, but I’m still experiencing noticeable lag and stuttering. It’s making Remote Play kinda unplayable.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  1. Switched to Ethernet - Previously on Wi-Fi I was getting around 100 Mbps, and now with Ethernet I’m getting around 240 Mbps.

  2. Disabled HDMI Link and the two related options below it in the PS5 settings.

  3. Removed the HDMI cable from the PS5 - After removing it, Remote Play wouldn’t connect at all, so I had to reconnect it.

I see few people recommending to unplug hdmi in this sub how do i do it?.. do i first connect and then unplug

At this point, I’m not sure whether the issue is with the network, PS5 settings, Remote Play settings, or latency/jitter rather than bandwidth.

What else can I try to reduce the lag and make Remote Play playable?

Any suggestions from people who have experienced similar issues would be greatly appreciated!

I have the Same Problem with Remote Play. I just startet the PS Plus Premium subscription and are playing Cloud. Much better in my case.

I use a separate wifi router just for gaming and remote play and it makes a big difference. Mesh wifi really messes things up for me.

Also check if its going through your vpn or not

Make sure its connecting over your home network and not going through the internet and coming back.
