Roku ultra intermittently stops responding to remote (both Roku remote and Logitech). Starts back responding after about 30 seconds. Anyone experiencing this/have ideas to resolve?

@BLG56The remote uses WiFi direct to communicate with the player so I'm curious if you've tried using a network app like WiFi Analyzer for Android or something similar if you have an IOS device. Once installed it will show you how many others use same channel/band as you. If there's lots of congestion you can log into the router and switch to a channel with less. Most people use the default Auto-channel select which means the router is constantly changing channels. Best practices is manual channel selection while monitoring with the network app. Hope that helps
I don’t see any iOS apps that do the analysis you mention. However, I also determined what is happening is as follows: the remote (Roku or Harmony) sends a signal and (intermittently) the Roku Uktra is delayed responding. For example, I select pause and 10-20 seconds later the Ultra paused the video.
SOLVED. After replacing batteries and testing WiFi, I determined the remote was the issue. Replaced with new remote and problem is fixed.
