Likely causes

How to fix CE-105799-1, easiest first

  1. Check PlayStation status
    Open the PlayStation status page. If there's an outage or maintenance, wait it out.
  2. Restart and go wired
    Restart the PS5, use a LAN cable if you can, then set up the connection again in Settings > Network.
  3. Move closer to the router on Wi-Fi
    Bring the PS5 nearer the router and clear anything between them.
  4. Power-cycle the router and modem
    Turn them off, wait at least 5 minutes, then turn them back on. Update the router firmware if the maker offers one.
  5. Open Sony's ports
    TCP 80, 443, 3478, 3479, 3480 and UDP 3478, 3479, 49152–65535. Your ISP or router maker can help.
  6. Try a static IP or different DNS
    In Settings > Network > Settings > Set Up Internet Connection, set the IP manually or enter a public DNS server temporarily.
  7. Try again later
    If nothing helps, Sony says the line is probably busy; wait and retry.
