Getting to the WiFi login page on the PS4 can sometimes be a bit confusing, especially if you’re new to the console. In this article, I’ll guide you through the process, sharing my personal experience and tips along the way.
Step 1: Power on your PS4
First things first, make sure your PS4 is powered on. Press the power button on the front of the console or use the controller to turn it on.
Step 2: Navigate to the Settings Menu
Once your PS4 is turned on, you’ll need to navigate to the Settings menu. To do this, use the controller and scroll to the right until you reach the Settings icon. It looks like a toolbox.
Step 3: Select Network
In the Settings menu, scroll down until you find the Network option. Once you’ve located it, select it by pressing the X button on your controller.
Step 4: Choose Set Up Internet Connection
Within the Network menu, you’ll see a list of options. Scroll down until you find the “Set Up Internet Connection” option and select it. This will allow you to set up a new connection or modify an existing one.
Step 5: Select WiFi
In the next menu, you’ll be presented with different connection methods. Since we want to connect to a WiFi network, choose the “Use WiFi” option.
Step 6: Choose your WiFi Network
After selecting the “Use WiFi” option, your PS4 will scan for available networks. Once the scan is complete, a list of networks will be displayed. Scroll through the list and locate your WiFi network.
Step 7: Enter WiFi Password
Once you’ve selected your WiFi network, you’ll be prompted to enter the password. Use the virtual keyboard to enter your WiFi password. Take your time and make sure to enter it correctly.
Step 8: Test Connection
After entering the WiFi password, your PS4 will attempt to establish a connection to the network. It will perform a connection test to ensure everything is set up correctly. This may take a moment.
Step 9: Access the WiFi Login Page
If your PS4 successfully connects to the WiFi network, congratulations! You can now access the internet on your console. However, if your WiFi network requires a login page, there’s one more step to complete.
Open the internet browser on your PS4 by selecting the WWW icon on the main menu. In the browser, you’ll be automatically redirected to the WiFi login page. This page usually requires you to enter your login credentials or accept the terms of service.
Conclusion
Getting to the WiFi login page on your PS4 may seem like a complicated process at first, but by following these steps, you’ll be connected in no time. Remember to enter your WiFi password correctly and keep an eye out for any additional steps required by your network, such as accepting terms of service. Happy gaming!
