My Roku 4K Streaming Stick w/Voice Remote is stuck on my OLD internet/wifi network (upper right corner on Home screen says "Not Connected") and I can't update/change it to the NEW internet/wifi network because:
1) The physical Roku remote stopped working many months ago.
2) The Roku remote I use on my iPhone (via Roku app) is no longer working because my iPhone is on the current/NEW wifi network, which puts the Roku app on that same current/New wifi network - which means I can no longer use my iPhone as a Roku remote.
And we all know that without a remote (a physical one or a remote via the Roku app) you cannot change or update your Roku stick's internet/wifi connection.
Lastly, I researched how to change wifi network manually by using the Roku stick's IP Address. However, the Roku stick is not going to have/show an IP Address if it's not connected to a current wifi network - my Old wifi network is no longer in existence, hence why the Roku Stick no longer has an IP Address.
PLS HELP! How do I change my Roku stick's internet/wifi network without any kind of remote??
The easiest/cheapest 2 options are:
1) Buy & pair a replacement Voice Remote/Voice Remote Pro/2 for $20 & $30 respectively (available @ Walmart, Amazon.com, etc)
2) Change your "new" WiFi SSID & password to match the "old" WiFi SSID & password (requires login access to your modem/router/gateway and changing settings).
There are other possibilities/options, but they are neither as easy nor as cheap.
