Unable to connect ps4

I've been trying to play for a week now and i can't.

If i want to join 1 game i have to wait like 30 min. Waiting and spaming "retry" option. And it only connects me for one game, after that i'm unable to join or invite to party and i have to close the game and repeat said process.

It's not fair, i'm already a week behind in the battle pass. 

This is the first time this has happened to me.

My connection is fine, i can play whatever else online, i have my ps4 connected vía lan cable.

    Got it. Can we try using a different DNS on your PS4 to see if that helps at all? I've seen some cases where changing the DNS can help with similar issues. To change your DNS settings follow the steps below: 

    1. Open up the Settings on your PS4, then go to Network. From there go to Set Up Internet Connection, and select either WiFi or LAN cable depending on what you're using.
    2. Select Custom > IP Address Settings (Automatic) > DHCP Host Name (Do Not Use) > DNS Settings (Manual)
    3. Enter the Primary DNS as 8.8.8.8 and the secondary DNS as 8.8.4.4 -- This is the public Google DNS.
    4. Select Next > MTU Settings (Automatic) > Proxy Server (Do Not Use) > Test Internet Connection

    Let me know if you're still having any trouble connecting after that. Thanks!

    Hi @RevolverBryan


    Did you have a chance to try changing your DNS settings? Are you still having trouble connecting?

    Do you also play on PS4, or do you play on a different platform?
