Can’t get into my Roku to connect to new WiFi

My Roku remote stopped working a while ago so I’ve been using the app as a remote. I had to get a new WiFi router so now my phone isn’t on the same network as my Roku so it’s not connecting thru the app. Without being able to connect to my Roku thru the app to use the remote I can’t actually get into my Roku to reset the WiFi info. Is there any way possible to reset it without having a remote??? I’m just about ready to put it in my driveway And see how many pieces I can make running over it. Then I’ll get a firestick.

What model Roku?  If it's a Stick, you must have a remote.

You can't set your phone to use the same wifi network as your Roku?

Alternatively, can you reset your router to use the same network name (SSID) and password as your previous router?
