Re: Roku “not connected”, remote not working

@Meghan007

Thanks for the post.

Have you tried to reset the remote by pressing the home button, arrow down button, and pairing button altogether for 6 seconds then release? After doing the reset, remove the batteries from the remote. While the batteries are out, press and hold the OK button for 5 seconds to drain the remaining power from the remote. Then reboot your Roku unit. Reinsert the batteries back and press and hold the black/pairing button for 5 seconds. Check if you got the light on the remote and observe if the remote will pair back.

In addition, we recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps provided by our Support page here: How do I resolve issues with my Roku® voice remote? | Official Roku Support 

Please keep us posted what you find out and we will be able to assist you further.

 

Thanks,
Danny

Re: Roku “not connected”, remote not working

Hi everyone,          

I ended up getting a new stick with ability to access internet long distance. My previous roku was six years old. Good luck.

Re: Roku “not connected”, remote not working

I ended up getting a new roku stick. Mine was six years old. The remote that came with the new one doesn’t work for me. I use the roku app on my phone. Easier to search too using keyboard. Hope you get yours figured out.
