I just recently purchased a second hand PS4 on Ebay from a very nice seller after my old one had hard drive issues. When i started up the new one the message "LAN cable not connected" or something of that nature even though an Ethernet cable is connected. I am using the same Ethernet cable i had been using with the old PS4 and had no problems with this at all.
Even though it comes up with this message right after i log into my PS4, i can still use the internet and play online games without any problems, so far. I have noticed though, with the "new" second hand PS4 the download and upload speeds are a little lower than what i normally got with my old one, but again, haven't found this to be a problem.
Thanks for the reply RogerRoger. It would seem as though the problem was a faulty ethernet cable. Even though i had been using the same cable with my old ps4, it must have been damaged somehow during the time when my old ps4 died. Bought a new one and straight away all connection speeds back up to where they should be.
