How to Fix Error Code WS-116521-6 on PlayStation

Error Code WS-116521-6 is an error code that appears when the PlayStation 4 fails to connect to the Internet. It is usually caused by a problem with the user’s Internet connection, but can also be caused by an issue with the PlayStation Network.

When troubleshooting this error code, the first step is to check the status of the PlayStation Network services. To do this, go to the Settings menu, click on the gear icon in the top right corner, and select Network. If the services seem to be functioning properly, then it is likely that the issue lies with the user's Internet connection.

The next step is to restart the router. This is the most effective way to clear any temporary issues that may be causing the error code. Power down the router, wait a few minutes, and turn it back on. Once the router is back online, check to see if the error code reappears.

If the error code persists, then it is time to try reconnecting the PlayStation to the Internet. To do this, go back to the Settings menu, click on the gear icon in the top right corner, and select Network. Then, select the Settings tab, choose the "Set Up Internet Connection" option, and select your Network. Delete your Network, wait a few minutes, and reconnect to it.
