Have to reset my TCL roku tv every time I turn it on in order to connect to wifi

My tv (TCL 55S425 55” Roku smart TV) has worked fine for years but all the sudden it will not connect to any WiFi unless I go to settings, power, reset. When I try to go to network connections it just loads forever and freezes  

this is super inconvenient as I have to wait 3 minutes for my tv to reboot every single time I turn it on. 


I have reset WiFi settings, and even did a hard factory reset. This fixed the problem for a couple days but it’s right back where it started. Any advice?

Likely will just need to wait for the reported update fix to address. (Roku has been less than forthright with what the actual is or expected release date.)

If you do not have "Fast TV start" enabled try turning it on.

Settings > System > Power > Fast TV Star
