All other household devices will connect to same wifi (even the exact same brand of tv in my bedroom). New tv will not. I'm at a loss (and that's a very short trip).

On initial setup it tried to connect and then asked if this was for a dorm/hotel or a home after it couldn't connect. I thought that was an odd question. After clicking it was for a home it still would not connect.

Help! Thanks

I wanted to add that I created a guest network that we all connect to. The tv on initial setup never even asked for the password. It will not connect to the regular network, either.

If it's not asking for your password then it's not registering as a secure wifi. Is there a custom way you can try to connect to set the connection type to whatever type of secure connection you are using?

Roku 2 is where it's at. It's the same as the Roku3 but with no voice activation.

I have 2 and it's all I need
