How to setup TV with only the remote app

So I recently moved and had lost my remote way before then. How do I connect my TLC Roku TV to the wifi without the remote. I have the app remote but how would I connect my TV?

Re: How to setup TV with only the remote app

If you set the SSID and passphrase of the new router to be identical to the old one, then the Roku TV and all your other devices won't even know anything has changed and should just connect to it using their existing connection information.

If you can't do that, you'll want a remote.

You should be able to go to a local big box store (WalMart, Target, etc...) and get a generic universal remote that covers Roku. That should be enough to get you started until you either find your own remote, or decide to get an official Roku remote.
