Ps4 Lan Cable Port Broken

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.

Ps4 lan cable port broken. I was having issues with my wifi connection so i switched to a lan cable. Or is it just not working when you plug in another cable. Thanks for the a2a. Or anything strange looking.

So now i took apart my ps4 and checked the network port for cracked solder joints. The cable works on other devices but it is not recognized by my ps4. 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.

To put it simply the software in your ps4 is not recognizing an active ethernet connection. Damaged hdmi port and faulty hdmi cables. Is part of the cable still stuck in the port. 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.

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. Either way i recently opened up my ps4 which was a lot easier than i expected.
