Can't connect Roku to new wifi

I have a new wifi network, and I'm trying to connect my roku device to it. It works with my phone, I just have to change the MAC address settings to use the device's MAC address. Is there a way to do this in the settings?

Re: Can't connect Roku to new wifi

I’m not sure what you are trying to do the MAC address.  Do you have a remote to get the Roku on the new network?  If not, setting the SSID and passphrase of the new router to match the previous router is a quick fix.  Then the Roku will just connect to it. 

Banned but back. Because why not?
