Trying to play online

I can't play online games on my PS4 it keeps saying my network delay might be too long for game streaming. So I tried the LAN and it still says the same thing 😭

    Satellite internet has very high latency, and this affects some games. 

     

    From their FAQ:

     

    Will I be able to play console-based gaming?

     

    Hughesnet is not recommended for console-based gaming activities because they quickly consume your Priority Data.

     

    Can I play online games with Hughesnet?

    Online games where you take turns, such as casino or chess, turned-based role-playing games and Facebook games work well with all plans.

     

    Will I be able to play real-time gaming with Hughesnet?

     

    Multiplayer games requiring rapid response are only supported with Hughesnet Fusion plans. However, console-based gaming is not recommended with any service plans because they quickly consume your Priority Data.
