      Hello, we're sorry to hear about your troubles. Based on your description, it sounds like there could be an issue with the strength of your wireless connection. Be sure that your router is within range of the device and avoid obstructions like cabinets and walls when possible.

      As a tip, you can check the strength of your internet connection by going to Settings > Network > Check connection. This will test the quality of the signal and also measure the speed of that connection, to be sure that your signal is strong enough.

      If you still have the device and are continuing to have troubles, please reference our helpful FAQ article: http://go.roku.com/connectivity

      This page will provide you with common concerns, troubleshooting, error codes, and recommended actions. We hope this helps!

      Hi Nancy, help has arrived! This Roku device is a streaming player that connects to 2.4 GHz wireless bands only. You'll want to ensure that the wireless connection you are connected to is a 2.4 GHz wireless network. You'll also want to be sure that it is within range of the device and you could try restarting your Roku device and router.

      As a tip, you can check the strength of your internet connection by going to Settings > Network > Check connection. This will test the quality of the signal and also measure the speed of that connection, to be sure that your wireless connection is strong enough.

    Good price, loads of streaming options, fast, and easy to use. For my needs Roku was perfect and the remote doesn’t need to point at the tv to work which comes in handy when I’m feeling lazy.
