Battlefield 2042 Error Code 1:15178951260

This error means the game lost its connection to PlayStation Network and had to disconnect you. The most common reason is a weak or unstable internet connection, especially when using Wi-Fi. Another possible cause is damaged saved files on your system.

With that in mind, let’s go through the different methods you can use to resolve this error code. Without further ado, let’s get started.

1. Use a Wired Connection

The first thing you should try when you see this error is switching from a wireless (WiFi) connection to a wired Ethernet connection. Many players who had this issue reported that changing to a wired connection fixed the problem. This suggests that your WiFi connection might be unstable, possibly due to interference or weak signals.

If possible, switch over to a wired connection and see if your issue is resolved. 

2. Use the 2.4GHz WiFi Band

Another possible fix for this error is telling your PlayStation to connect to the 2.4GHz band of your WiFi instead of the 5GHz band. You can do this in your PlayStation’s network settings. If you’re already on 2.4GHz, you can also try switching to 5GHz and see if that helps.

  1. Go to the main menu of your console. 
  2. In the top right corner, select the gear icon to open System Settings.
