Damaged hdmi port and faulty hdmi cables.
Ps4 lan cable port broken.
Or anything strange looking.
So now i have cleanly removed the port.
The only way you can replace the ethernet port yourself would require soldering so if you have no experience in this you could take it to a repair shop to get this.
I have checked my cables with a network cable tester and i have replaced the cables just because i don t want it to be a system issue.
Is part of the cable still stuck in the port.
To put it simply the software in your ps4 is not recognizing an active ethernet connection.
My ps4 says to connect a lan cable when i am setting up network settings but it is plugged into both the ps4 and router.
It may not be ps4 specific or widespread but some users have reported issues stemming from a damaged hdmi port shipping on their ps4 units.
So now i took apart my ps4 and checked the network port for cracked solder joints.
Either way i recently opened up my ps4 which was a lot easier than i expected.
I was having issues with my wifi connection so i switched to a lan cable.
Thanks for the a2a.
The lan port is a method of connecting the ps4 to the internet via a wire known as an e.
Why does my ps4 say lan cable not connected.
