A LITTLE HELP

If you get stuck

Internet connection says “Failed”

With Homebrew Network DNS configured, this is expected. Our DNS automatically blocks Sony’s servers, so the PS5’s Internet connection check can report “Failed”. Keep your PS5 connected to your Wi-Fi or wired network, then open User’s Guide to load Homebrew Network.

You’re ready to explore.
