I just got my Express 4K and it installed all by itself.  However, the base kept blinking a blue light.  I unplugged the usb cord from the back of the base and hit the reset button then plugged it back in. The blue light went off briefly but came back solid.  Right?  Wrong!

Now it’s back to blinking again. Woe is me.  Any more “solutions “?

Thanks for chiming in here in the Roku Community, Testy!

We appreciate you reporting this to us. We're here to assist. 

A blinking blue light indicates a connectivity issue on your Roku device to your internet. 

Here are a few things we can check...

  • Make sure you are using the right network and password. If you do not know the password, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the person who set up your wireless network.
  • Check if other devices can connect to the same Wi-Fi® network. Test your internet connection using a phone, computer, or tablet that is connected to the same network. If your other device is not working, contact your ISP for further help.
  • Restart your Roku device. To restart your device, you can unplug the power cable, wait a moment, and reconnect it, or follow the steps below to restart your device from the Settings menu.
  • Restart your router. Refer to the steps below for instructions on restarting your modem or router.
  • Test your Wi-Fi signal. Learn how to improve your wireless connection.

If none of these work, you can connect your streaming device to a mobile hotspot as a temporary workaround to ensure there is no problem with your device.

Please let us know if these help you. 

Best of luck,
Emman
