YouTube can’t connect to wifi. I’ve tried everything to no avail!! HELP

Jump to solution

Hey, I’m new here to the roku community. I got my roku tv on Christmas and so far i love it! Until now…YouTube isn’t connecting to my wifi even though it’s strong and even have a wifi extender to keep the connection strong. I’ve done everything:

-factory reset

-unplugged my modem and tv

-removed app and checked wifi

-updated app and tv

Still shows that it can’t find the WiFi

  1. Remove the channel: navigate to your Home screen, move to the right, highlight the app, press Star*, then select Remove channel
  2. Perform a system reboot: navigate to your Home, select Settings > System > Power (skip if unavailable) > System restart
  3. Re-install the channel: navigate to your Home, scroll and select Store, look for the app, then press Add channel
Additionally, please try connecting your Roku device to a mobile hotspot to see if streaming improves.
