Hi Norriehowie,
Is it the WiFi or is it the network connection?
In case of network connection you might want to check if your clock settings are set to "Network time".
Cheers
Peter

Hi
I have a similar problem. I have Netflix and Prime, but when I try and use them I get various messages that all tell me my wi-fi is not connected. It is driving me crazy and I cannot find any setting that allows me to tell it my wi-fi details. Even more irritating is that it has worked in the past.
Peter's response is not helpful as I cannot find anything that relates to 'network time' either.
Any suggestions will be gratefully received, please note that my tech skills are very limited!

Try:
Reboot the Router
Reboot the Android TV
Use a Static IP for TV
Separe the Wi-Fi (2,4 GHz and 5 GHz)
Rename the Wi-Fi if the name of 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz are the same
Use a LAN (if you have problem with the distance between TV and Router use a Powerline devices)

Reboot the Router - Did that
Reboot the Android TV - Did that
Turned on TV - 'no internet connection' message
Use a Static IP for TV
Separe the Wi-Fi (2,4 GHz and 5 GHz)
Rename the Wi-Fi if the name of 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz are the same
Use a LAN (if you have problem with the distance between TV and Router use a Powerline devices)
Regarding the rest of your message I am afraid it is all gobbledygook to me, sorry

The LAN is a cable, Powerline is a couple of devices for cover a distance between the Router and TV (over house electrical system).
That's only for bypass the Wireless problems...

I owe you an apology and thanks.
I looked up Powerline devices on google and it looks like a wi-fi extender.
I have one of those on the opposite wall to the tv. I assume the tv was tuned into the router upstairs, not the extender.
Anyway, I have now moved the extender to the socket I use for the tv. By some stroke of luck I had a Lan cable. Plugged it in and hey presto it all works.
Thanks so much, you have saved me hours of floundering away and using much bad language.

😉
Anyway, Powerline is diffrent from an Extender, Powerline is Internet over A/C power, Extender is Wi-Fi from Wi-Fi.
Does exist, oviusly, Powerline with Wi-Fi for, example, have the Wi-Fi in a remote zone of the House but with a good Signal...
Sorry for my bad english.
