Windows 10: ps4 connection failure

My ps4 hasn't connected to the internet for about 4/5 days,i have looked online for solutions which haven't worked.

The BT hub i'm using sais the ps4 is connected and I can access some online pages when sony me all features are up and running, in green for go, Grrrrrr

Dns servers and IP's have been suggested and checked to no avail, it fails on internet connection every time.

Could it be an internal firewall or balls up since the last update?

I'd be grateful for any help thanks

:)

Standard things to try are restart the hub & restart the PS4.

Is the PS4 connected via Ethernet or wifi? If Ethernet try setting up as wifi this will confirm or deny Ethernet as the cause.

PS4 external play options

MKV is a container format which can hold unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file, but PS4 can play MKV files with the following specification:

• H.264/MPEG-4 AVC High Profile Level 4.2
• MP3, AAC LC, AC-3 (Dolby Digital)

Once the MKV you add to PS4 does not meet the above requirements, the problem occurs.

To solve the issue, there are many methods and here list two of them:

1. Handbrake is the go to free converter for video files on Mac.

HandBrake: Open Source Video Transcoder

Install it and then point it at one of your MKV files and convert to one of the preset MP4 defaults in the Handbrake sidebar. Under "Regular" you should be fine with "Normal" or "High Profile" settings.
