Roku menu path Settings/System/About will show you your Roku model and model number. It's a good idea to report these when asking questions because different models have different features and capabilities. This is especially important for problems with wifi connections. If we know the model you can get better targeted suggestions.
Thanks. I can't get out of the Setup page into Settings...it wants to establish connection first...but this is a XD, specifically, Model 2050X.
That’s one of the very first generation of Roku devices from 2010. It hasn’t been supported in some time and the last OS for it was 3.1. (The current OS is 12.) It might be looking for a server that no longer exists.
Thanks. I knew it was an old system, got it because I wanted the RCA outputs & those seem to have been dropped in later versions.
Yes, the last Roku to have composite video came out in 2017.
I thought I was a hold-out by not upgrading to HD and HDMI until 2008. Once I did, I wondered why I waited so long. However, there are gadgets on amazon, ebay etc. that can do conversions such as HDMI to composite video. I think that would probably be better than trying to find a Roku old enough to have composite video, yet new enough to be supported for years to come.
