roku streambar pro drops internet connection when turned off

I just purchased a Streambar Pro and every time I turn the unit off it appears to lose connection with my internet. To get it to connect again I must unplug the electric plug, wait a minute, then plug it back in. Once plugged in again it works perfectly until I turn it off. Then to watch TV again I need to unplug the Streambar Pro and let it go through its restart procedure to reconnect to the internet. Then it works fine until the next time I turn it off. I must repeat this procedure every time I want to watch TV. 

Is the Streambar Pro I have defective? I bought it from Amazon as a reconditioned unit because no new units are available for purchase.
