Oct 5, 2015 - If you cannot download the software update on your PS4 directly, there is. Go to the PlayStation Blog and download the update file to your PC. Am afraid to press on download update for just I got all my games as digital now and I have already downloaded an 1 TB of games If my device fail in update and if I lost all those games I will break my Ps4 pro for good I won’t apply to download all those 1TB again.

Just curious if others are experiencing this on PS4. The only thing that could be the case is that the deluxe and ultimate edition downloads are pointed at an old download file for the game. This lines up with people re.

What To Do
- Download and install a proxy server on your computer. CCProxy is simple and has a free version for Windows computers. You can try Squidman for Macs
- After launching your proxy server, get its IP and port number (from the HTTP port listing). In CCProxy, you can just hit the Options menu to get this info
- Now, on your PS4, set up a new internet connection. Use the custom setup instead of the easy setup. Select auto for everything except the proxy
- Plug in the IP and port number you previously got from your proxy server. (When I set this up using CCProxy, the port was listed as '8080,' but you can try '808' if that doesn't work)

That's it. After literal years of intermittent Googling and tinkering with my router and internet settings, this solution actually worked. My PSN download speeds now reflect what I'm paying my ISP to provide. Downloading Mass Effect: Andromeda's 1.9 GB day-one update went from three hours to three minutes after the fix.
Wait!
It's worth noting that, for as long as your PSN internet connection is set up like this, it can only connect to the internet via your proxy. So, since I've never had a problem with actual ping or lag when playing online (only having the speed problems when downloading), I simply turn off the proxy after a large download has completed and reconfigure my PS4's internet connection back to my router. I don't download large files too often on the PSN, but if you do, it's up to you to decide if you want to switch between your proxy or not.
If you're wondering why this works, Redditor tibiazak explains it well. Basically, the PS4 doesn't grab a lot of data at once, but running it through the proxy makes it grab little amounts of data a lot faster.
