I don't agree that these two topics should be merged, based on my troubleshooting ...
Here's a more complete description of my problem.
1) I have a TCL Roku TV, which I've had for years. Up until 2-3 weeks ago, when I used the remote control to turn on the TV, it would always connect to Wifi ok. I have not changed my router or anything related to Wifi for a long time.
2) Now when I turn on the TV using the remote control, it never connects to Wifi. It always says "Not connected" in the upper-right corner of the Home screen. When I then do Settings -> Network -> Set up connection -> Wireless, a Wireless Scan window appears with it Looking for wireless network goes on forever without timing out (which itself is terrible).
3) If go back to the Home screen, and do Settings -> System -> Power -> System restart, then it always connects to Wifi ok. Or it I re-plug the TV power from the wall, it also always connects to Wifi ok.
My conclusion is that a TV software update accidently changed something for the TV to not connect to Wifi when using the remote control to turn the TV off and on, but not when it gets a "real" power off and on. Once the TV is connected to Wifi (see #3 above), there is no intermittent Wifi issue - thus nothing to do with the router. Please try to recreate this.
I am having the same issue. Here’s the requested information.
Device Model: G855X - Roku TV
onn. Model: 100012587
Serial Number: X01200TWEKP0
Software Version; 13.0.0 build 24062-CT
ISP: Cox Communications
Tracker ID: P0-237-256
I have Astound Broadband
Are we supposed to post this personal information on this thread?
I am having the same issues! I can only watch Roku Live TV and can't watch any of my streaming apps like Disney+, PureFlix, Hulu, Max, Paramount or Discovery+. It's annoying! I would like to be able to watch my apps. It's had to be a glitch in the roku network since I am not the only one having this issue. It's not router issues because all of my devices are working fine.
I have tried the above steps previously posted and still cannot my tv to internet. I have had this tv less than a month! What are the next steps???
I have gone through all the process of plugging and unplugging, restarting, speaking with the ISP. Is it possible that the Roku needs to be replaced since all 3 TVs are doing the same? Internet works for computers and phone, WiFi signal is excellent.
Insignia and Roku put out a terrible product that drops wifi constantly. Even when I was wired with an Ethernet cable I would somehow lose network connection. Roku is garbage and their customer service matches their products. The fact they don’t have a chat option lets you know they know their products are trash but don’t want to deal with all the pissed off customers dealing with the same exact issues.
