PS4 got dropped and now all my controllers have connection issues

So the other day, my roommates and I were using my PS4 when someone decided to trip over the cord that was charging the PS4 controller sending the PS4 flying to the ground. There are no issues besides that the controllers are having hard time connecting to the PS4. We have to stand like 2 feet away for the controllers to work and even then the PS4 doesn’t do everything we press. For example we could be playing and when we press square it wont do anything so then like 30 seconds later what we want to do would finally happen. We bought a new controller thinking that was the problem, however, the same thing keeps happening with all the controllers we own.

It sounds like the WiFi antennas have come unplugged or possibly even broken. You can check them by taking the top and bottom covers off of your console, removing the power supply and checking to see if the round cables are plugged in and the metal antennas that they connect to are not bent up.

You can see the antennas in the teardown: PlayStation 4 Slim Teardown
