Connecting to in-home wifi

My Roku keeps telling me to connect to my in-home WIFI to watch. It is connected to my in-home internet.  I've restarted my Roku and my router. My Roku box is about 5 feet away from my router. I've done things Google suggested, but still no success. I have another TV hooked up thru Roku which is working fine. HELP!

    What is the model number of the non-working Roku and also the working Roku device. (can see this info from Settings/System/About).

    Also, what is the model number of the router? (should be a sticker on side, bottom, etc.

    Are you receiving an error message number as well?

    Could just be a network configuration issue that the above info may help narrow down issue to,

      My working Roku is 3930RW Roku express.

      The problem child is 3930X Roku express.

      I did see an error message when I tried to enter in a different way.  It is TVApp-00116.

        Based on the error message, that would appear to be the Xfinity app.  Do other apps work?  If so, this is probably something for Xfinity support.

  • Are you seeing this in some specific app?  I don't recall this specific phrase "in-home WIFI" in Roku in general.
