Setting up device without remote

Trying to set up an old Roku stick I found at my mom’s house but we don’t have the remote. Need the IP address to set up manually but customer service won’t give me the IP address from the serial number. Any ideas? Thanks!

Re: Setting up device without remote

The router will assign an IP address to the Roku that is within your local LAN, after it is connected.  If you know the SSID and passphrase of the router it used to be connected to, then you can change the current/new router to match to make the Roku connect.  Otherwise, just get a remote.

Banned but back. Because why not?
