I know there has been a couple of posts recently about networking issues but my issues started all of a sudden within the last 24hrs or so and nothing in my setup had changed. In fact i had been playing the game and had left it logged in whist i looked at my phone for a bit and when i tried to launch an activity it kept erroring on me.
Logging into the game wasnt an issue other then it taking an inordinate amount of trying to load the game as it kept getting stuck at connecting. Eventually i would get to the main screen but the second i tried to launch an activity, it would take me to the location like i was about to land but then i would get an error code. I have spent that much time trying to play around with my setup that i can't remember what the specific code was but through the messing about it is no longer showing the code, now it keeps saying i am having network issues (repeat ad nauseam)
When i said the issues are very specific, its because i have no issues loading the game on Steam, however all my issues are connected with either my PS5 or PS5 Pro.
In terms of what i have tried, i have set a statis IP for both consoles (i have also tried setting static IPs for Wifi and LAN connections as well to no avail) i have also forwarded ports to those static IPs for both protocols for 1935,3074,3478-3480. i have made sure any changes made involved either/both a reboot of the console or the router after making any changes and it still doesnt work.
I have tried automatic settings for DNS and have also tried both google and cloudflare DNS settings, i have tried automatic settings on the console after making changes in the router and have also tried specific settings to match the router (such as matching the DNS settings and default gateway between the consoles and the router) I have even tried not setting static IPs or forwarding pots but here i am no further forward after spending several hours at it and getting nowhere.

So i have seen another couple of posts suggesting this is DNS related but i am not convinced. I can connect via Steam using the Cloudflare DNS, and i have even tried google and OpenDNS on my PS5 and i still cannot conect. Using cloudflare i have no issues connecting via steam but i cannot conect via PS5 via any of the aforementioned dns servers, i have tried setting the DNS at console level or within my router menu and it still doesnt work. Can anyone point me in the direction for something that might actually work ob my PS5?
