Has anyone else been getting this error whilst playing multiplayer on PES2021 on PS4. It’s been driving me mad for the past 3 weeks and I’ve lost a lot of points!

So everyone I get paired with an opponent online, at some stage it will disconnect, with the above error saying I’m not connected to the network. I read about PES2021 may need port forwarding on some routers and i have set that all up following this guide I also increased the speed my PS4 is getting by hooking up a Ethernet WiFi a WiFi booster, using a static IP to make it as stable as possible.

Yeah this problem resurfaced after a good period without any disconnections. I stopped playing for a few weeks and it’s become a constant issue again.

I think it’s fair to say the the router is pretty much useless and I’ll have to fork out in purchasing my own router.

Read on another thread virgin pinpointing to a hardware issue with someone else with similar problems.

I’m out when my contract ends.

Thanks for the tip.

Bear in mind, any ISP provided router is going to be a one-size-fits-all solution and will not be as good as a decent third-party router. So, the next ISP might supply you with a router that struggles the same as the Super Hub, but they may not let you attach your own to their service.

Yeah I hear that. My previous 3 ISP routers gave no such problems though.

Ordered my 3rd party router so quite excited now 🙂
