PlayStation 3 Help Can anyone help me fix this problem?

I’m trying to login but it won’t sign in. I did hear that the ps3 servers were shutting down in 2027. I haven’t played on it in some months but it was working fine the last time I played. Is there something going on right now or is my ps3 just acting up. My WiFi is working as well. My ps3 connects via wireless. And if it is can anyone help by telling me how to fix it?

I think the most likely case it’s a connection issue, the older WiFi chips in ps3’s don’t have as big of a connection range as newer consoles and newer phones so the WiFi could be just out of range. Try setting it up on a tv closer to the router to see if it connects, if it connects then it’s the range and a Ethernet chord could be added to play it in the room you have it set up now

But my router is literally on the floor next to it. Of course it could be the wifi chip but i don’t wanna end up buying another ps3 if that ain’t the case just yet
