That said I have apps set to be suspended in rest mode but have measured how fast the same download took Both with ps4 on and in game and in rest mode with game suspended and even accounting for changes in Internet bandwidth that occurred in that time period the download when in rest mode was almost twice as.
Game save uploads are working OK though. Xbox Game Updates If anyone has any input for help on this matter I would be appreciative. My understanding was that game updates were supposed to auto download whilst the system was in standby for Playstation Plus members, my PS4 does not and has never done this I believe Jeff has had problems with this. I have noticed that the start-up from standby is not instant and shows the PS logo and health warning as if the console is shutting down.
Is this a problem with my PS4, the firmware or is it that the request for patches are only pushed to the network at certain times or certain days? Rest Mode is a bit like sleep mode on your PC—it goes into a low-power mode instead of turning off entirely, so you can get to your games faster when you wake it up.
The only downside to using Rest Mode is that it uses more energy than turning your PS4 off—but how much more, and how much does it cost? When you turn it on again, it will power on in a second or two rather than going through a 30 second or longer boot-up process.
It can download game updates and operating system updates in the background, so your games are always up-to-date. Thanks to PS4 System Update 2. You can turn on your PS4 and immediately start playing the game from where you left off without sitting through load screens and loading from a save file.

Plug in a controller with the USB cable to access the Safe Mode menu, where you have a number of options including restoring default settings, rebuilding the database, and initialising the PS4. Note that some of these options can have a serious impact on your console, including complete loss of data, so make sure you know what you are doing and have adequate back ups before using Safe Mode.
For important updates, you won't be able to go online until you've completed the update, so it's best to do it as soon as possible.
