R7000 wired device no internet

Thanks for the replies,
It seems that suddenly my internet settings on the ps4 just stopped working.
I have it manually setup for a static ip address so i can open ports to the ps4.
I just changed the settings to automatic and it worked fine.
I fixed the static ip by setting the router to give a specific ip address to the mac address on the ps4.
Strange that it worked for years and now suddenly stopped.
I think it was to do with the subnet mask i had set to 255,255,255,0.
On the router it was 255,255,255,128. I tried that on the ps4 and all that happened was it had to think a bit longer before coming up with "internet failed".
Anyway, all is working fine now, thanks!
