    When activating your Roku device, you should follow the Quick Start Guide and complete the on-screen instructions to connect your Roku device to the internet.

    Once this is complete the Roku device will display a link code on-screen to link your device to your Roku account.

    For more information regarding linking your Roku device, please see our support page How do I activate or link my Roku® streaming device?

"Link Player - Type the link code you see on your TV below."

I checked the settings / device info and found a 12-character serial number, but that's apparently not what I'm looking for:

"The linking code you entered is not valid. Please check the code displayed on your TV and try again."

So *where* on the TV is this code displayed?

I must be overlooking something obvious, because a search of these forums uncovered nothing, as did reading the SDK FAQ and the Roku FAQ. 😞

    Is there a question here or is this spam?
