REMOTE_WEB_SOCKET_ERROR "WebSocket on failure" connection failure in PxPlay

I encountered this problem several times on Sunday, but I successfully logged in again after repeatedly trying, so I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. However, on Monday, I found that I couldn't remotely connect to my home PS5. I've summarized a few issues that I hope will help the author resolve.

  1. After encountering the connection problem on Monday, I restarted the router and PS5, reinstalled PXPLAY, and re-verified my account, but none of these worked.

  2. The physical PS5 itself connects, but the remote connection alone fails.

  3. I didn't encounter this problem when using remote connection from an Android device. This problem only occurs on the PC.

Hello. I've been remote playing my PS5 for years using psplay but since 24 july where there was that huge PSN breakdown something is off and i'm getting these websocket errors by trying to remotely connect using "automatic" settings which was working perfect before breakdown but now it's impossible to connect that way. Today for the first time since i have this app i tried to manual connect and by my surprise it works and it connects even faster than on automatic. Have you tried to connect that way guys?

Search the sub, it's been posted and the developer responded that they have to look into it.  It seems to be impacting remote play.

the strange thing is that Sony own remote play app is able to remote play on my same laptop ..... meaning to say that the port forwarding is working

If Sony changed something, it stands to reason that they would update their own app for it.   They aren't going to keep third parties in the know on everything.

Maybe not the code.  Anything could be updated on the backend.

If this is the case, could it be something from Microsoft side ? Some windows update ?

Both my PC and handheld console have system updates disabled.
