My Playstation 5 refuses to connect to my internet.

My PS5 will not connect to the wifi. It's right by the modem and i constantly get thay the signal is too weak. I have got the modem restarted, restarted the PS5. Changed to 5.ghz 2.4 ghz and so on. Nothing has changed it at all.

Error code NW-102379-2

Hello there @Am4413, I understand the importance of having the PS5 up and ready to go. Is this your only device that will not connect to your modem?

Yes. Every other device connects just fine.

Have you tried swapping your modem out for a new device? If that does not help, I will say you need to do some troubleshooting with your PS5 if that is the only device that will not connect to your modem.

The modems like brand new. Not even a year old and all my devices and everyone elses connects just fine. The PS5 has connected just fine before and now it is the only device that won't connect. I've followed the troubleshooting for the PS5 already. Idk if the modem is blocking the PS5 from connecting or what.

The modem would only block a connection if you have set it to be blocked. Look on your Xfinity app if you are using our modem, and be sure that your PS5 is not blocked from connecting.

I hard wired it real quick and connected to the modem but i usw wifi on my PS5 and hardwire my xbox as I play thar one slightly more. The PS5 was a connected device to the modem earlier but i removed it after it wouldn't connect to see if removing it could reconnect it to the wifi and that didn't work either. I am using the modem you guys provided me.

So you have a stand-alone router connected to your modem?

I am connected to the modem you guys provided me during set up. I'm not connected to a separate router. I am connected straight to the device you guys have provided. Pictures of my issues for reference.

I appreciate the confirmation and pics 👍 When you're going through the network setup process on the PS5, are you ensuring to set it up as a wireless and not Ethernet connection? And when your system is scanning for wireless networks, is it at least able to detect your home network?

It finally connected after almost 3 hours of me trying to connect it. I unplugged everything again for like the 50th time and plugged it all back in. Also it was set to wifi only and was always trying to connect to my wifi. I even made the PS5 forget the wifi multiple times and it would show up in the scan still.

I am sorry to hear there was so much trouble getting connected. Are you experiencing any issues connecting with other devices?
