Exact same issue, powered from the wall with the supplied Roku hardware, tried all 4 HDMI ports , factory reset, ensured the plug was in very firmly. Worked fine last night , nothing I do today makes a difference and NOTHING changed till it went into error 022 

  • Hi Jotis,

    A warm welcome to the Roku Community!

    We appreciate you letting us know about your conern. Make sure that the Wireless Receiver is securely connected to your Roku device. This is important to ensure proper communication between the devices.

    If you're unsure about the connection, you may want to check the connection cables and make sure they're firmly in place.

    Also, please try unplugging your Roku device and disconnecting it from any power source. After a few seconds, plug everything back in and turn your device back on. This can help to reset the connection and resolve any connectivity issues you may be experiencing.

    If you're looking to learn more about your Roku streaming stick and the long-range wireless receiver, I would suggest checking out Roku's official support website. They have a comprehensive FAQ section that covers a wide range of topics related to Roku devices, including troubleshooting, setup, and more.

  • Just got a new device from Best Buy and it’s not detecting the wireless adapter with error 022.

    - The cable is connected using the USB wall adapter

    - Already checked all connections. Plugged and unplugged several times. 

    - Tried different HDMI ports and TVs

    This is definitely broken and will return. I see many people having the same issue, so I will get something else. 

    The supposed solution on this forum doesn’t address the issue. The problem is the cable is not recognized, because it doesn’t work. There’s nothing can be done other than replacing the cable, but that’s too much of a hassle. Better to just return and avoid.

      I wouldn't be at all surprised if you got one that someone had returned after stealing the working cable and replacing it with their faulty cable.

      Hi Violet826! Welcome to the Roku Community.

      You may be having this issue here, "Wireless Receiver Not Detected."

      Try to troubleshoot your wireless signal, but we are aware also that specific Streaming Stick 4K+ devices with the wifi pod extension will need to be replaced.

      If your device is impacted and you need to get a replacement device, contact customer support and they can get the device replaced for you at no charge.

      Hope that's helpful!

    • I am getting this error code often also. Who do I send the the serial number and other information to? Thank you.
