The PlayStation 5 is a machine that spits out fun and wonder, but it's kind of hard to take advantage of all that whimsy when you can't connect to the internet. Unfortunately, that's exactly the problem some users are reporting, and apparently, a console update may be the culprit.
The update under scrutiny added voice commands and variable refresh rate support to the console — though VRR might not work with all games, apparently — but it has also apparently had the side effect of shunting users off the world wide web.
