Getting Started - Setup & How-to

Help getting started with Roku devices, including setup, connecting your device to your TV, linking a Roku device to your account at my.roku.com/link, adding channels, subscribing to services, and more.

Moved home and have new temporary broadband.

I have a flashing white light and I know that my ROKU is not communicating with the WIFI and I need to update it.

However using the remote doesn’t work and I can’t get to the ROKU screen to update it so caught in a catch 22.

Please help...
