Anybody else having PS4 network issues? (Network connection needed/ Error Code 8018)

Hello,

Can't play a single game because of Error Code 8018 on my Playstation 4.

This started yesterday, I can't play a single DbD match on my PS4. No recent changes in my home network, everything else works fine, it's just DbD, resetting the router, rebuilding the database, reinstalling the game didn't work.

Put my PS4 into the DMZ to see if it's a port forwarding issue, but the issue persists, changing from LAN to WiFi adapter didn't work either.

The Network connection pops-up in the Killer lobby or 20-30 seconds into the game, saying network connection needed to play the game, then error code 8018.

Did some packet captures and there are no disturptions in my connection.

Anybody else experiencing the same? It's probably some server side issue yet I couldn't find any alerts on this.

Thank in advance for the feedback.

    I've had it on and off since yesterday as well. I can be hit by it mid match. Very annoying.
