Your PS4 connecting may not always be an issue with your console. It may be your wired or wireless connection creating your gameplay disruptions — including your device settings.
Here are a few tips on how to test whether it’s your console or your internet connection.
Swap your Ethernet cord: If you are connecting via Ethernet, try swapping out the cable to see if it’s the issue. Another option is to try plugging your cable into a different Ethernet port on the router in the case that the current port has blown.
Move your PS4 console closer to your wireless router: You may be experiencing intermittent signal loss due to the distance — or even walls — between your console and router. You should first try to move them closer if they aren’t already, and if that doesn’t work, try rebooting both your modem and router.
