On my 75" TCL Roku TV: If the Internet goes out, as it often does... and I choose to watch over the air broadcast television via my roof-top antenna - why does the flashing signal light continue to BLINK the entire time, completely ruining my viewing experience? When watching "television" why does the light need to be flashing at all? Regardless of my Internet status, switching the input should disable the light.

Hi, @mccauley 

Thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the Roku Community. 

We see that you have a concern about the blinking LED light on your TCL Roku TV, and we'd be glad to attend to it. Kindly be advised that Roku TV's LED blinking is an indicator that it is searching for a network connection or waiting to be set up with a connection. This feature allows users to be guided in setting up their Roku TV for streaming. Additionally, this feature doesn't have an option to be disabled aside from connecting the Roku TV to a network.

We hope you find this information useful, and if there's anything we can do to assist you further, please let us know.

Best wishes,
Kash

This is slightly infuriating. I'm running my TV with a generator in the aftermath of a hurricane. Internet is down and I can't turn off this blinking light? There needs to be a way to disable this.

Nothing worse in the design of a TV that this light flashes and distracts from viewing.
