There are 2 major methods to solve the problem.
Method 1: Endless Proxy Loop
For clearly solve this problem follow step by step below instruction:
- Go to the Settings menu of the PS4 Console.
- Choose Network.
- After you select Network you need to choose Set Up Internet Connection.
- There is a question on the head How do you want to connect to the network? and you should choose to use Wi-Fi because the PS4 cannot able to connect to the WiFi network.
- Now, there are two options Easy and Custom, you should choose Custom and you have to select the WiFi name that is yours. Which you know the SSID name and password.
- After selecting the SSID to enter the WiFi password, if you’ve connected previously with that SSID network you don’t need to enter the password.
- After successfully entering the WiFi password, you need to choose Automatic in the IP Address Setting.
- Now, you might not use the DHCP Host Name just you need to choose Manual in the DNS settings that you see in the option.
- In the DNS Settings, you need to enter Google’s Public DNS as below follow I typed.
Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8
Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4
- Here is many people got confused and can’t able to fix this problem. So, please don’t click on the Next button just choose Automatic in the MTU Settings and don’t enter there any Proxy Servers.
- Now, this is the step to test the internet connection. So, click on Test Internet Connection.
- Finally, we’re done but sometimes the above DNS doesn’t work. At that time just replace the DNS with this DNS Servers:
Primary DNS: 208.67.222.222
Secondary DNS: 208.67.220.220
Method 2: Use A LAN Cable
Use a LAN Cable is the best alternative for WiFi. If WiFi cannot able to solve the problem you must use LAN Cable to solve the problem. LAN cable is more reliable and faster than WiFi. Because when you’re using LAN Cable there is no loss and the download speed is increased. If there is a possibility to use LAN cable I recommend you use the LAN cable. But WiFi is easy to use so we just need to solve to problem of PS4 Won’t Connect to WiFi. When you use the LAN Cable to playing or downloading the PS4 Games the speed is going to increase.
Restart the Router
Now, I remember a film dialogue “90% problem is solved when we restart (reboot) the electronic device” it means you just need to restart the router. Sometimes we’re going more crazy and lazy. We never want to lose the connection even 1 second with the internet. But we don’t know everything needs rest. So, if we’re not rebooting the router for a long time the router gonna be hang and the error PS4 Won’t Connect to WiFi is appeared on the screen. So, take some rest of the router you’re using.
