ps5 - Encountered cannot log in because not connected to PSnetwork

There's a "Disconnected Cannot log in because "Playstation Network" Cannot be reached.

However, I can download stuff from PSstore and the game seemed able to pull my PSN ID at the main screen. It was working fine earlier.

Checked some previous posts that past issue may be due to PSnetwork, but seemed PSnetwork is fine:

Not sure what the issue is.

Not sure if this is the exact same bug/issue, but it happens a lot when I play, particularly in longer sessions. Suddenly there is a popup in-game about "You left the group" or something along those lines. If I then log out and try to log back in, it won't work. I see my name in the top left of the login screen, but there is nothing else, not the 1/6 stuff that is usually present. Only way to log in is to manually close the game on PS5, and then restart it. Since this happens basically every time, I've gotten into the habit of manually closing down the game when I'm done playing.

I think I have something similar. For me it happens a lot when trying to TP to hideout. When I click on the portal nothing happens, I can still walk around and kill enemies etc but after some time I just get disconnected and then most of the times I just cannot login with an error that I have no internet connection...

Hi, I have the same issue, it happens at least once per day, says can't connect to playstation network or smth, and all other games work fine, I honestly just think its a connection issue taking to long to contact the host due to poor wifi, try an ethernet cable, I've just moved house and waiting to get integrated wiring so ill just put up with it for now.

also to add to the above this also is happening to me on poe2, and they run of the same server I doubt its a psn issue.
