How to Fix "Can't Obtain IP Address" on PS5 | PS5 Network Fix | Fix PS5 WiFi Problems - Quick Fixes!
If your PS5 is showing the "Can't Obtain IP Address" error, it's likely due to network issues. Here’s how to fix it:
The IP address plays a crucial role in how your PS5 connects to the internet and interacts with other devices. Here’s the relationship between an IP address and the PS5:
1. What is an IP Address?
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique identifier assigned to your PS5 on a network. It allows your console to communicate with:
Your router/modem
PlayStation Network (PSN)
Game servers (for online multiplayer)
Streaming services (like Netflix, YouTube)
2. How PS5 Gets an IP Address
Your PS5 obtains an IP address in two ways:
Dynamic IP (Default): Assigned automatically by your router using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Static IP (Manual Setup): Manually set in PS5 network settings, ensuring the address doesn’t change.
3. Why an IP Address is Important for PS5?
Online Gaming: A stable IP is needed for low latency and smooth multiplayer gaming.
Port Forwarding & NAT Type: Specific IPs help configure Open NAT, reducing lag and connection issues.
Remote Play & Streaming: A valid IP is needed for accessing PS5 remotely.
Troubleshooting Network Issues: If PS5 can’t obtain an IP, it won’t connect to the internet.
