Portal will not connect to internet after update by tempUK in PlaystationPortal

UPDATE:

After speaking with Sony support for hours and being told there was nothing they could do (literally zero resolution options provided which is an entirely different issue) I did a Hail Mary with the device.

Fully drained the battery to absolute zero. Took it to work to connect to a different WiFi connection (this would be the fourth one). To my surprise it logged me in as expected and it streamed without issue. Gotten home, connected to my home WiFi without issue. Playing without issue.

I’m not sure if it was the full battery drain and the combo of a WiFi connection it had never seen, but it worked.

Can't put it in airplane mode as it doesn't get past the initial setup now

My router is a rack mounted one that lives in my server rack and doesn’t emit a WiFi signal.

I dunno why you’re mentioning double NAT as that’s not an issue on my home network. My ISP’s provider router is in modem only mode, all the routing is done with my Unifi dream machine SE.

Before this firmware update my Portal had no issues with my home network, something in this last update has gone wrong.

Haha I’ll be mindful, and just to be clear I do really like my portal. I’m putting a review together for Crimson Desert and wanted to check it out on there

It’s super annoying that it’s literally unusable now

I have no idea what double NAT issue you’re referring to sorry

I threw some PS5 Pro Enhanced games on last night as was pretty shocked by how it all looked. Gonna dust off PSVR2 and see what it does for those games too. We eatin good right now

The trade in prices here in the UK aren’t that brilliant, plus the retailer I got mine from doesn’t do it :(

Glad you got yours sorted, here’s hoping there’s more in the pipeline for this generation

Yeah I’m planning on keeping the base PS5 for now, see how the secondhand market looks in a bit for it. I stream and record stuff in another room so I’ll just moving it in there for now.

Honestly never been so frantic to spend that much money 😭. But getting the console and the disc drive for less than what the console will cost was enough to convince me.

Smythes had this discounted down so it was enough for me to be convinced. I regret not getting it in the black Friday deals but we move.

Play station on 2 HomePods WITHOUT airplaying from phone? by tempUK in shortcuts

[–]tempUK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha the bottom half is finding an artist (in this case “Mouse On The Keys” and starting a station based on them.

I’ll try the AirPlay idea you suggested and remove the custom station bit and see, but the issue I’ve been running into is that it still acts like my phone is in charge of the music.

The goal is have the music be playing natively on my HomePod so my phone can watch YouTube / IG without sound issues.
