Connecting to wifi with no remote?

I have an old streaming stick that i wanna put on my tv outside but no longer have the remote to hook it up to wifi. Was planning on just using my phone as the remote. What can i do to connect it to wifi?

Get a remote.

You didn't say which Stick it is, and that's important, as the devices prior to 2016 used different remotes. Since 2016, the remotes are compatible across stick model numbers. Walmart, Best Buy, and other stores sell the Voice Remote, which works with 2016-later sticks.
