Why do I have to restart my TV every time I use it for it to connect to my wifi?

Hi Carolyn4647,

Thanks for the first post to the Roku Community!

We understand you're having connectivity issues with your Roku TV, and we appreciate the steps you took to resolve the issue.

For this matter, we're glad to let you know that performing a Factory Reset on your Roku TV may resolve the issue you are experiencing.

You can follow the steps below to perform a factory reset from the Roku device settings:

1. Press the Home button on your Roku remote.
2. Scroll up or down and select Settings.
3. Select System
4. Select Advanced system settings.
5. Select Factory reset
6. Select Factory reset everything and follow the on-screen instructions.

You may also use the physical button on your Roku TV. It is located on the back or bottom of your device, and the physical Reset button is either tactile or has a pinhole design that requires a straightened paperclip. It will appear similar to one of the following:

Once you locate the Reset button and your Roku device is powered on, press and hold the button firmly for about 10 seconds. When the factory reset is complete, an indicator light or status LED will blink rapidly on most Roku devices.

After a successful factory reset, your Roku device will restart in the same state as a factory-new device.

We hope this helps! Let us know if you still have any questions.

All the best,
