Risk level

Low

Usually safe to check without specialist tools.

Urgency

Low

Quick answer

The PS5 had an issue connecting to the internet from an app. Save your game if you can, close the app with the options button and open it again, restart the console and turn the router or modem off for at least 5 minutes.

Safety first

Stop and check this first

  • Closing the app loses unsaved progress: save first if the game allows it.

Safe checks you can perform

  • Close the app fully and restart it
  • Restart the PS5
  • Turn the router or modem off for at least 5 minutes

Leave these tasks to a qualified professional

  • Do not attempt this professional task: Your internet service provider (ISP)
  • Do not attempt this professional task: PlayStation Support

What a technician must be able to justify

Technician visit

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.

These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.

  1. Your internet service provider (ISP)

    What they doIf no app connects after the three steps, they check the line and the router.

    They must show youthe line state at the time of the fault.

    In writingticket, date and cause found.

  2. PlayStation Support

    What they doIf only one app fails and your network works with the rest, they check for an issue with that app.

    They must show youwhether there are known issues for that app.

    In writingcase number and answer.

Before accepting a part or repair

Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.

Follow these steps

Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

  1. Close the app fully and restart it

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    save your game if possible. Highlight the app, press the options button and choose Close Application. Then open it again.
    Result that matters:
    the app connects again.
    If it connects:
    it was the app session.
    If the code returns:
    restart the console.
    Evidence to keep:
    App name and time of the error.

    Evidence: PS5 error code NP-103148-7 (PlayStation Support)

  2. Restart the PS5

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    restart the console and open the app again.
    Result that matters:
    the connection works after the restart.
    If it works:
    it was a temporary console state.
    If it continues:
    move on to the router and modem.
    Evidence to keep:
    Result after the restart.

    Evidence: PS5 error code NP-103148-7 (PlayStation Support)

  3. Turn the router or modem off for at least 5 minutes

    No special tools

    Who:
    you, if you control the router; if not, whoever runs the network.
    How:
    turn off the router or modem, wait at least 5 minutes and turn it on. Repeat what you were doing in the app.
    Result that matters:
    the app connects without the code.
    If it connects:
    the network equipment was the cause.
    If it still fails while other apps connect:
    the problem follows that app; contact support.
    Evidence to keep:
    Time of the router restart and result.

What it means

Sony links NP-103148-7 to a problem connecting the PS5 to the internet while an app is in use. The steps go from the app outwards to the network: close the app fully and restart it, restart the console and turn the router or modem off for at least 5 minutes. Each step rules out a layer: the app session, the console state and the network equipment. The code does not point to a hardware fault.
