Hi folks,

 

So I'm having a lot of trouble with my PS4 as of the last 12 months. Its probably about three years old. Its been used a lot, like a LOT. However, I've always made sure to clean it and treat it well.

 

Unfortunately, its been unable to connect to the internet without a restart a lot, and to restart it I often have to manually hold down the button rather than do it through the software because it will just stall halfway through shutting down, and the light just pulsates. It also occurs coming from rest mode except it does turn on but then the white light just pulsates. This has become a basically daily occurrence. Previously, before I replaced the hard drive with an SSD, it often used to refuse to power back up from rest mode but it stayed an orange pulsating light as if it was still resting,

 

I guess I just need a second opinion or some suggestions on if this is fixable. Its frustrating to have to tell my friends to wait five or ten minutes because my console is acting up.

Another issue I forgot to mention is that it often just stalls on my storage and network settings. I have to manually shut it down to get out.
