I'm starting to think Roku is doing the same thing Android and Apple are doing to slow devices just to get you to buy new hardware! I have owned almost every Roku since day one and the last 3 players have all started having the same issue "Slowing, Crashing, remote issues" at about the same ages! If Roku is using updates to tamper with the players to make them obsolete "Shame on Roku!!" This kind or Business model is actually bad and people will find out eventually they don't want this kind of black mark!

All of a sudden same issue. I have spectrum internet and don’t have any obvious issues using our phones or computers. But both of my TVs use roku (6 months apart in purchase dates) and they are both now having major lags in response when using the roku remote. I am tempted to get a new device just since it’s been a few years but worried the same thing will happen? Not sure what to do. I am not at all tech savvy.

Thanks for the post.
There are a couple of things you can try to resolve this issue.
- have you tried replacing the batteries on your remotes?
- have you tried changing the wireless broadcast channel on the router to see if this will allow your device to connect?
In addition to trying the two about troubleshooting steps, can you also provide us with the Roku models that you are using so we can try to provide further troubleshooting steps if necessary.
Please keep us posted.
Thanks,

Clearly you're not reading what OP said. They included their model and that they replaced the batteries. Big oof Roku.
