What should we do if something went wrong?

If you’re experiencing issues joining any server on your PS5, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

  1. Check Internet Connection: Ensure your PS5 is connected to the internet. Test your connection in the console’s settings and ensure the network is stable.

  2. Restart Router/Modem: Sometimes, restarting your router or modem can resolve connectivity issues.

  3. Check PSN Status: Verify if PlayStation Network (PSN) services are up and running. You can check the PSN status online to see if there are any service interruptions or maintenance activities.

  4. Restart PS5: Reboot your PS5 console. A simple restart can often resolve temporary glitches.

  5. Update Console Firmware: Make sure your PS5 system software is up to date. Firmware updates often include fixes for connectivity issues.

  6. Check Game Servers: If the issue is with a specific game, check if the game’s servers are operational. Many games have a status page or social media channels where server status is updated.

  7. Adjust Network Settings: If you’re using a wired connection, try switching to Wi-Fi, or vice versa. You can also try changing DNS settings to a public DNS like Google DNS.

  8. Check NAT Type: Ensure your network has a suitable NAT type for gaming. NAT Type 2 is generally recommended for online gaming on consoles.

  9. Contact ISP: If you suspect the issue might be with your internet service provider (ISP), contact them for assistance.

  10. Contact PlayStation Support: If none of the above solutions work, consider reaching out to PlayStation support for further assistance.
