Re: UltraPro Roku TV replacement remote

hello ,

sorry if i hijack the thread,

 

but is it still possible to @convert the RF/remote Pro to a IR-based one with the new Ultra 2024 model?

 

someone on the forum here described a procedure that would disable the AcessPoint (WiFi) for the remote by entering a code< and thus enabling IR/remote,

or is the Rokul Ultra 2024 automatically IR enabled?

Re: Roku Ultra 2024 / disable WiFi completely

No, WiFi cannot be disabled in the device.

WiFi Direct in the device can be disabled, but only if not using a paired WiFi Direct remoteSettings/System/Advanced System Settings/Device Connect = Disable Device Connect

WiFi/WiFi Direct cannot be disabled in the remote.

Re: Roku Ultra 2024 / disable WiFi completely

thank you,

 

if i understood you correctly, i would need to buy another remote (which should be only IR-based),

and then i could disable WiFi completely in the Roku Ultra 2024, via Settings, and not loosing functionality (i don't mind loosing Voice Remote since i wouldnt use the feature anyway) ?
