Easily connect your LG smart tv to WiFi using a USB mouse and then you can use your phone as a remote. Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks.

I didn't have any channels so when I clicked recommended, the wifi thing wouldn't pop up. For anyone else who needs it, I ended up plugging in both a mouse and a keyboard. Hitting the windows key will pull up a menu, and on the top right you can click settings. From there you can set up wifi under the network category.

you're a life saver. I changed the router, so my LG phone app would no longer connect. the mouse approach worked like a charm. I still have the remote, but the OK button is dead, and without it, I cannot use the remote to enter the new wifi password of the new router.

Thank you for the video Jace. It did not work for me since the recommended channel section is not available. However i found a workaround: plug the tv via network cable to a network that also has wifi, so i could use my phone and the webOs remote app to configure the wifi network while the tv is connected via cable, and then just use it with wifi controlled via the phone. Hope it helps others, cheers

Hello, I came here honestly, bc I wish I could give you 300likes and more. I haven't been able to use my TV properly for months bc I had no remote, and accidentally disabled the smartphone remote option. I used a cable mouse, crossing fingers to it work. And it did. I love you so much. Fun fact, we are very alike. Skin color, hair, even the scar in the eyebrow. You want more? I was wearing a piece of clothing that matches exactly yours when I was watching this video. It was kinda creepy. "Its me, but wiser and from another reality that came to help me".

If the TV has been reset, or didn’t come with a remote, you’ll need a wireless keyboard & mouse set. You have to use the arrows to get through setup, then you can use the mouse too. The Windows key brings up the apps on the TV, and you can get to the settings on the far right with the mouse.

This allowed me to link my phone through an app and have a remote. Thanks for the inspiration that led to a fix. Also an Xbox controller won’t work😂
