    Connect the PS5 console to a wifi hotspot running on your smartphone. Can you connect to BF6 now?

    Log into your home router and add the PS5 console to your router's demilitarized zone (DMZ). This allows the PS5 console to bypass the home router's firewall.

    Give the PS5 console a static IP address so it's IP address never changes.

    Also check to see what the home router's external WAN IP address is. If the IP address starts with 100 let me know. That might mean your ISP uses Carrier grade Network address translation (NAT) which blocks incoming connections.
