Still Can’t Connect To PlayStation Network? Here's How To Adjust Your Settings
While Sony is reporting that the PlayStation Network is back up after the outages, we’ve been receiving reports from readers that all is still not well. Our own Jeff Marchiafava tried these tips to get his PlayStation 4 connected again, and they might work for you, too.
PlayStation forum user SKShadowGod suggests following these steps to get back online if you are experiencing error CE-33987-0.
- Go into the network settings
- Choose to set up internet connection
- Select the appropriate connection (wired or wireless)
- Choose “Custom”
- Select the appropriate network and enter your password
- Automatically acquire an IP Address
- Do not specify DHCP Host name
- Use automatic DNS settings
- Manually set the MTU
- Change the number to 1472
- Do not use proxy server
- Test your internet connection
Hopefully this gets you back up and running. Good luck.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
