Guess I don’t need a new tv, KZbinrs are smarter than lg customer care for sure. Thank you so much

This less than 3 minute video completely turned my morning around after a hour of messing with wifi, connecting other devices and finally concluding that the tv was the problem. This was great. Thank you!

So yesterday my LG stopped connecting and would not find any signal. I was happy and possed off at the same time. One, this was a great excuse to upgrade to OLED, two OLEDs are still very expensive. Stumbled on this video after my son insisted I could fix it... so now you are making me look like a hero in my son's eyes but now I have no excuse for my wife to upgrade.

[@hod6ie856]

What an absolute legend! It's October 2020 and LG TV's still have this issue. Up until now; every time I turned off my TV, when turned back on it would drop the Wifi signal, searching for Wifi would just give me the spinning wheel of doom! I had to switch off / back on the TV at the mains in order for Wifi to turn back on again. This fix in your video worked perfectly and Wifi is staying on every time I turn on my TV. Thank you very much! :-)

It's easier to unplug the tv for a few seconds. That works for me. Still pisses me off.

[@LeoLijo]

Yea tv's are not good anymore, I have an old plasma tv and I will rather use it and trow this trash LG smart tv in the junk, I have to unplug it from power for few seconds, mouse cursor just dissapeart and then I have to unplug it, and the best thing when you go to LG website there you can see only useless "replace batteries" ar to pair the remote controller to the tv, IT DOESEN'S WORK and sometimes wifi is off and you cant trun it on by clicking, and the amount of RAM that they put in this tv's is junk, vou can not even watch a video in their web browser becaose "it crashes because of lack of RAM" I really hate that tv, its like 1 year old and 6 months after purchase, cursor starts dissapiring. ITS A PIECE OF TRASH I wont buy a tv from LG never again, the good old plasma tv is 1000 times better then this "smart" junk!

[@diannec2719]

I was having the same issue with my brand new LG OLED C2, but it wasn't just the internet dropping--the TV would actually turn itself off. And when I turned it back on, no internet. So anyway, this fixed it. My TV is no longer randomly turning itself off and the WIFi works just fine except the screensaver says NO SIGNAL but I randomly discovered that by pressing the Home Button that my WiFi signal was actually just fine and I could access my apps and start streaming without any issues. I am so glad I found your video and didn't have to get the Geek Squad out here. The Geek may or may not know this fix. I have no idea how you even thought of it, but I guess you are a genius and I obviously am not :) I hope everyone finds your video and saves themselves hours and hours of teeth gnashing lol.

@@Cahriid The idea behind this procedure is to reboot the tv to reset the wifi connection. There's no specific option to reboot in the TV's menu. So that did work for me. Your tv need to be rebooted some times like any other devices ( smartphones, pc ...). Unplugging the tv from the wall doesn't always work.

Thank you, thank you. I have had this problem not only with my two three-month-old, exactly-the-same, purchased-same-day, LG televisions but with the two aged Vizios they replaced. After literally years of calls to the manufacturers' service centers (doing everything they told me to) and probably a dozen Comcast service house-calls which, in spite of their replacing the cable from the street to the house and a variety of new modems and new modem-router units, produced no improvements but only very frustrated-progressing-to-surly service-folk, EUREKA! your video changed everything! No dropped signal in at least the last two weeks. Thank you again, or did I already say that? Probably needless to add, I was ready to shoot the two new LGs and the Comcast equipment, but I have only water pistols. And how is it that neither LG nor Comcast had a clue about such a simple fix?

[@bronstahd]

Had a similar issue w/ WiFi connectivity when I changed my WiFi password. It would connect to the 2.4ghz network but not the 5ghz network. It was clearly caching the old password somewhere. I went to settings -> general and turned off quick start+ Then, powered the tv off and unplugged it from the wall for 5 minutes. When I restarted, I was able to enter the new password and it connected to the 5ghz network without issue. Sharing this here because this was one of the first results I saw in search results when troubleshooting.
