No remote and new wifi router

I have a Roku device connected to a tv, and a Roku remote for a Roku tv I no longer have. I typically used my phone as a remote for the device since I no longer have the remote for it. I have moved, and cannot use my phone as a remote because it cannot find the device, since it isn’t connected to wifi. How can I connect either the device to wifi, my phone to the device, or my old remote to the tv?

Re: No remote and new wifi router

The easiest thing to do is to set the SSID and passphrase of the router to be the same as the last one.  Then everything you have (phones, Roku’s PCs etc.) will all just automatically reconnect. 

Banned but back. Because why not?
