First, check if your Wi-Fi network is working properly. Sometimes, just rebooting your router can do wonders!

Go into your PS5 settings and run the 'Test Internet Connection' to see if it gives any specific error codes. That can help diagnose the issue!

Make sure your PS5 is not too far from the router. Wi-Fi signals get weaker with distance and obstacles.
