Fix Hisense Smart Roku TV Not Connecting To WiFi
By Robert Jones · 2021-10-01
A Wifi connection is very essential to watch your favorite programs on
Right then, let's talk about your Hisense Roku TV stubbornly refusing to connect to the Wi-Fi. It's a right pain, isn't it? You just want to kick back, catch your favourite show, and instead, you're staring at a "No Internet Connection" message. I've seen this countless times, not just with Hisense, but with all sorts of smart TVs. It's rarely the TV itself that's completely knackered; more often than not, it's a little niggle with your network or a simple setting that's gone awry. ### First Things First: The Old Restart Trick Honestly, nine times out of ten, a good old-fashioned restart will sort things out. It’s the tech equivalent of a good cuppa and a biscuit – fixes most things, doesn’t it? * **Restart Your TV:** Don't just turn it off with the remote. Unplug it from the wall, leave it for a minute or two, then plug it back in. This clears out any temporary glitches. * **Restart Your Router:** Do the same with your Wi-Fi router. Unplug it, wait 30 seconds, then plug it back in. Let it boot up fully; you'll see the lights settle down. Trust me, I've spent hours troubleshooting gear, only to find a simple restart was all that was needed. It’s frustrating, but it’s a good first step. ### Check the Obvious Stuff Sometimes, it’s the simple things we overlook. Like that time I spent ages trying to figure out why my turntable wasn’t making any sound, only to realise the amplifier wasn’t switched on at the wall. Felt like a right numpty, I did. * **Is Your Wi-Fi On?** Sounds daft, but check your other devices. Is your phone or laptop connecting to the Wi-Fi? If not, the problem’s with your router, not the TV. * **Right Network, Right Password?** Make sure you're selecting *your* Wi-Fi network and typing in the password correctly. It’s easy to mistype, especially if it’s a long, complicated one. Double-check those capital letters and numbers. * **Distance to Router:** Is your TV miles away from your router? Wi-Fi signals get weaker the further they travel and through walls. Try moving the TV closer, or perhaps investing in a Wi-Fi extender. I’ve got one in my workshop for the far end of the room; makes a world of difference. ### Deeper let's look at TV Settings If the easy fixes haven
