    Ps4 does not work when connected

The controllers do work on the PS4 and were working previously today. issue started after a windows update but since removing said update issue has still persisted. Controllers are charged/charging but yet give no input. On some occasions the controllers act as speakers but still give no input to

    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

    Ps4 does not work when connected

    Unable to connect PS4 controller to PC

    I can connect the ps4 controller just fine, my issue is that it wont show up at all after being paired. I have to unpair it, connect the device, enter the 4 digit code, it gets very tiresome. Method 1 didn't work because I had no greyed out devices. Method
    2 I have been doing, I am just trying to figure out a quicker way to connect it.
