    Hi, mspljackson 

    Thanks for posting, and welcome to the Roku Community.

    We appreciate you for sharing the problem you've encountered with your TCL Roku TV that keeps disconnecting from your network, and we're here to assist. We'd recommend performing the troubleshooting steps below in order to resolve the issue.

    Restart your Roku TV

    1. Press Home on your Roku remote
    2. Scroll and select Settings
    3. Select System
    4. Select Power. If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.
    5. Select System restart

    Restart your network connection

    1. Press Home on your Roku remote
    2. Scroll and select Settings
    3. Select Advanced system settings
    4. Select Network connection reset
    5. Select Reset connection

    After the network reset is done, your Roku device will restart and you will need to return to the Settings menu and set up your wireless network again. It is also recommended to restart your network modem/router for better results.

    If none of the steps above resolve the issue, kindly connect to an alternative network, such as an active mobile hotspot, to see if you're able to maintain a connection. If it does, then the issue is likely rooted in your modem/router, and you'll need to contact your Internet Service Provider to address the issue.

    Keep us posted on what you find out.

    Best wishes,
