TCL Roku tv not connecting to hotspot after software update

The only thing that helped was to change my iphone name (settings > general > about) and restart my phone. I changed it to one word and then the hotspot appeared on the TV and connected. HOWEVER, it  disconnected a minutes afterwards and my hotspot does not appear on the TV now.

    Hi pettomusic

    Thank you for the post

    If your TCL Roku TV is having trouble connecting to your iPhone hotspot after a software update, there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

    • Restart both the TV and iPhone: Try restarting both your TCL Roku TV and iPhone, and then attempt to connect to the hotspot again.
    • Reset network settings on your iPhone: Go to your iPhone's Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will erase all saved Wi-Fi networks, passwords, and VPN settings. Once you've done this, try setting up your hotspot again and connecting your TV to it.
    • Update the TV's software: Make sure that your TCL Roku TV is running the latest software version. To do this, go to Settings > System > System update > Check now. If an update is available, install it and then try connecting to the hotspot again.

    We hope it helps!


    Warm Regards,
