Can you replace the network card?

Hello. My house was hit by lightning and it came in through my internet radio antenna and proceeded to fry various electronics connected via my router, switch, and Ethernet cables. My PS4Pro was one of the devices. The network/lan card is fried and doesn’t work anymore. Is there a way to replace it?

Thanks

It is probably the ethernet chip on the PS4’s logic board. Unfortunately these are soldered on and will require micro-soldering to replace that chip.

It is replaceable but only by a reputable console repair shop that does board repairs.
