For the most part, the PS4
had a relatively smooth launch compared to consoles of previous generations. Less than a year after its launch, the console has only really suffered from one major bug, and a spooky one at that — it will randomly wake from a powered down state and eject whatever disc is currently inside. It’s unnerving when this bug wakes you up at three in the morning, then quickly becomes obnoxious when the console won’t allow you to pop the disc back in. The issue is more widespread than it seems, but not widespread enough to where you would have heard about it if you haven’t experienced it.
There are a few methods to fix the issue, and all of them are easy enough.
Pull the plug, wait a while
Like any piece of technology, you should try to reset the PS4 before you change anything major. Pull out the power cord, wait a while in the hopes that it somehow will please the technology gods, then plug it back in and fire it up. It sounds silly, but this has been reported to fix the issue frequently enough. If you aren’t up-to-date, update to the most recent firmware afterwards just to be safe.
Tighten the manual eject screw
You should try the above power plug method before messing with your console’s guttyworks, but if it doesn’t work, you don’t have to root around too deep amongst the PS4’s innards. The console has a failsafe for if a disc gets stuck in the slot, but rather than the little paperclip holes old CD-ROM drives used to employ, the PS4 uses a screw kept underneath the hood.
First, unplug everything from the console and place it in a well-lit area.
Pop the PS4’s HDD lid off. Slide more than pull.
You only have to pop off the HDD panel, then tighten a small, somewhat hidden screw. In the above diagram, the orange arrow is pointing toward the manual eject screw’s burrow. The screw is so small that a jeweler’s screwdriver works best, though any tiny Phillips-head will do.
Normally, you’d be twisting the screw in such a way to where a stuck disc will slowly poke out from the slot. However, if this screw is bumped out of place or somehow too loose, the console will interpret that as someone twisting the screw in order to eject a disc, and thus continually perform the eject function. This is why the console turns itself on — most game consoles can turn on using the disc eject feature, in addition to tapping the standard power button.
So, tighten the screw, put the lid back on, plug everything back in, and hope for the best. If this doesn’t do the trick, there’s still one last option.
Manually install the latest firmware in safe mode
If tightening the screw doesn’t fix the issue, users have reported that manually updating the firmware in a specific way will get the job done.
You’ll need a USB stick with at least 900MB of free space. On that USB stick, create a folder called “PS4” and in that folder create one called “UPDATE” (both without the quotes). Download
and put it in the UPDATE folder that you created on the USB stick. Turn off the PS4 — not standby mode, but actually turn it off. Plug in the USB stick, then hold the power button for at least seven seconds in order to turn the PS4 on in safe mode.
Select “Initialize PS4 (Reinstall System Software)” then follow the on-screen prompts to install.
If none of the above work
You’re boned, and you’ll have to send your
in to Sony for a repair or replacement. However, the majority of users experiencing the issue report that one of the above three methods does the trick.

- Dec 28, 2014 While thousands of PlayStation 4 owners are still claiming PSN is down today, it looks like changing the PS4 MTU settings is one option to fix PSN sign-in problems. This is exactly the message being spread by gamers to others owning the same console, which also involves the PS3 in some circumstances.
If you cannot sign-in to PSN on December 28, then
recommend you change your PS4 MTU settings to 1450 instead of 1500. It doesn’t seem to be working for everyone, but there’s hundreds of users at the above website claiming this stopped the NW-31194-8 error message and allowed them to sign-in to PSN again.
You just have to go to the settings menu on your PS4 and then setting up a new internet connection, or edit an existing one. Change the option from automatic to custom, and then set the MTU to 1450.
This is only a temporary fix while Sony sort out the PlayStation Network, which should be online for most people by now. It looks like Sony aimed to make changes to stop future DDOS attacks and the likes of Lizard Squad has promised not to attack Xbox Live and PSN anymore.
Did changing your PS4 MTU settings help you sign-in to PSN again, or are you still getting error messages? The official PSN status page details everything as online, so if you are seeing something different, then we’d love to hear from our readers along with any error codes being experienced.
Sony confirmed the problems with logging in , and have since told PS3 and PS4 owners to keep trying while PSN services come back fully online.
