Just got this Roku and it was working fine with screen casting and now all the sudden it won’t show up anywhere and won’t even pop up on the app to let me connect. I tried everything, checking my connection, making sure it’s on the same network, factory resetting, turning the screen mirroring and airplay on and it’s still not showing up. How do i fix this?
Dreakesten It sounds like a security setting in your WiFi has been enabled. There is a setting that blocks connected devices from seeing other connected devices on your network. This is mostly used in semi-public networks, such as a hotel or coffee shop. A home network that has a guest access SSID will also have it enabled. It's possible that yours was turned on accidentally, or if your ISP controls your router/modem they might have done it. With that setting on, you will encounter exactly what you have experienced.
How do I change the secuerity setting in my wifi?
The general answer is that you log into your router and browse the settings. On some ISP-rented/controlled routers you may not be able to control them in the usual way and may have to use the ISP’s website or app to control it. I don’t think you have mentioned any router or ISP so it’s hard to be specific.
By the way, is your Roku working in general? Just checking the basics! 😀
