I think my PS5's internet adapter is broken?

[Aztorian]

So me and my sister both have a PS5 and I'm only getting Nat Type 3. My sister is getting Nat Type 2 with the exact same settings and same ethernet cable. Is my PS5 broken?

Has port forwarding happened for her ip and can you try port forwarding for yours regardless?

Yes

The router is probably using UPNP for her PS5 and yours is being left behind.
It's a network issue rather than a PS5 one. You could try enabling DMZ and putting your PS5 in it

I tried port forwarding. Worked once, but changed back to Type 3 today. Static IP.

My ps5's IP in the DMZ?

Yeah, you'll need to set it as a static IP to ensure it stays there

Do you have other cables you can try? Do you still get the same results if you connect via Wi-fi?

Tried different cables and Wifi. I get Type 3, my sister gets Type 2.

As EvilBoris me mentioned, this is a network/router issue than a console one.
