Lan not working on PS4?

When I wanted to gamble the day before yesterday I couldn't switch to the LAN connection. Then I checked the cable and found a broken cable. The next day I went to Media Markt and bought and connected a new one. Now comes the problem: The Ps4 does not recognize the new LAN cable and the message comes up that I should plug a LAN cable into the Ps4, although one is inside. But with the old LAN cable everything went very well, only the new one somehow does not recognize the Ps4? Does the Ps4 need a special LAN cable or have I done something wrong? Can someone help me there?

No, the cables are all standardized or the connections themselves, you can check whether there's dust in the connection for the lan on the PS4, carefully clean with a cotton swab and possibly blow it in, if it is very dirty, cut off the console from the power and with it Use a toothpick to remove the stuck dirt very easily (but you have to be really careful because damage is about to happen)

Usually it's because, if that doesn't help, I would restore the settings on the PS4 (settings only) and then try again

Try the cable on another device. There are actually only a few possible errors.

But can it still be that the cables have different sizes? I once plugged the old LAN cable with the broken cable into the LAN socket and noticed that there's significantly less free space than with the new cable. Perhaps the new cable is not properly plugged into the socket and the Ps4 therefore does not recognize a LAN cable

So if you bought it at Media Markt, it's the same, they save on material wherever they can, but they have to adhere to the norms of the respective country. As far as I know, the EU standard applies to something like this, so even if you have freedom, it shouldn't be a problem as long as it engages and / or clicks on input
