    +1 on the Richer Sounds recommendation. They remain competitively priced while having the best customer service you'll find anywhere. They would always be the first place I look when buying a tv or home cinema equipment.

    Echo what others have said about richersounds bought LG c9 and denon x3600 amp from them last year. Great service and very competitively priced

    Worms Rumble is the free game this month for PS5 and it's up on the Store now. At least the web version.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭PopeVicodin


    Anyone know if the Rainbow 6: Siege update has dropped?
    Or the Ni-oh 2 one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,157 ✭✭✭Markitron


    Another +1 for Richersounds, it would be downright foolish to buy from anyone else.

    Hi guys,

    I have an issue with connecting to the internet via LAN.
    This was not an issue up until this week.

    Using ethernet the PS5 connects to the LAN but not the internet.
    I can still connect to the internet using wifi from the same router but not using ethernet.

    Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    Are you with virgin by any chance?

    I know this isn’t the right thread for it but I see people talking about LG OLED’s, I just saw that this years X versions have gotten their VRR issues fixed, which they didn’t think they’d actually be able to do.

    That had been putting me off but now bring on January sales! My 2014 Bravia won’t even bounce on it’s way out the door :)

    Did you start by simply rebooting the router?

    Yea, I have done all of that craic.
    I tried to delete the connection that is stored on the PS to set it all up again,
    but I cannot see any option for deleting.

    You don't set up a wired connection on the PS5, if there is a cable plugged into the ethernet port, it just uses it.

    Have you tried using a different cable?

    It is still stored in the connections menu and you can configure it.
    It gave me the option of setting up a second one while pricking about with it this morning
    The cable worked fine for the last fortnight, but i'll give that a go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭PopeVicodin


    Have you tested another device like a laptop on that cable?
    Have you tried a different port on the router?

    Heard from a friend working in one of these stores that both Argos and Smyths are getting PS5 stock in on Thursday, Argos will be offering pre orders for €50, unsure about the amount of stock each store is getting, best of luck

    ah nice first post, great that you created an account just to tell people your "news" and get thir hopes up :pac::pac:

    Eir

    I'm on eir and after it connects for me it takes 30 seconds to realise it's online, wired ore wireless.

    So your friend works in either Argos or smyths yet is able to tell you what both stores are planning?

    On top of that, the PS5 has already been released so it's not preorder anymore, if it's available in Argos or Smyths then it's to collect immediately so i'm not sure what you're paying €50 for? Even at that, Argos in Ireland have never done preorders for anything

    Top that all off with a lovely first post....

    It connects to the internet via wifi no problem.
    Just no go with the wired connection - I have tried the above stuff and have now managed to delete the connection stored on the PS and recreate it but still no joy.

    I will want the ethernet for downloading games and streaming.

    It says it is on the local network but no internet.:confused::confused:

    Did you reset the router? Not just turn it on and off.

    I bought one on the 19th, and it was called a preorder when I bought it. I was due to get it December 10th, I got it last Wednesday but thats aside the point. It was a preorder and it was bought after the console was released.

    People on this thread talk as if they know all the inner workings of every shop selling the PlayStation.

    They are useless when Sony don't have a major console launch, I can only imagine they are beyond useless at the minute.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,382 ✭✭✭madmoe


    No but they deliver here, and their support and customer service is second to none. I bought a 65” LG C9 OLED off them this year. Magic TV, PS5 looks glorious on it, as does the Dolby Vision and HDR on the built-in Netflix, Prime and Disney apps.

    I'm getting really excited now! What about the audio? Do you have an amp or sound bar or just the audio from the TV.

    Kind regards,
    Mark

    I bought an LG CX a couple of months ago. I have a small sonos soundbar but I tried the speakers from the TV when I first got it and was very impressed with the sound from it. Its a hell of a lot better than my previous Samsung TV anyway. I bought from richersounds also

    Can I ask how you’re finding the Sonos with it? I’ve got a Playbar so it’s older and interested to see how it fares

    Going great for me. I have a beam and two play 1s and its always been perfect. If I play a movie from a USB I sometimes have to use the TV settings to fix a lip sync issue but its only happened once or twice and its dead easy to fix. Otherwise its spot on

    Noice. Can't wait to see how it performs. And how it will change with the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback.
