Switch to a cable and set up the network again
- Who:
- you, with a LAN cable if possible.
- How:
- connect the PS5 to the router by cable and go to Settings > Network > Settings > Set Up Internet Connection > Set Up Wired LAN. If you only have Wi-Fi, move the console closer to the router and clear anything in between.
- Result that matters:
- the download progresses without drops.
- If it finishes over cable:
- the wireless signal was the cause.
- If it fails over cable too:
- Wi-Fi is ruled out and the router is next.
- Evidence to keep:
- Connection type used in each attempt.

What it means
According to Sony, CE-107527-2 signals a possible problem with the data you are trying to install. Its steps cover the download (wired connection, network set up again, distance to the router and a router restart) and the data already written to console storage, which must be deleted if the install was left incomplete. If a clean wired download finishes, the fault was in the data or network, not the console. The code does not point to a faulty part.
