  • If your LG TV says the WiFi is turned off but it isn't, and you see the "Turn it on to see the list of available networks" error, then you either have a basic software issue or something more serious. This video will help you troubleshoot the problem and hopefully fix it.

      If you have a firestick that you no longer use. Use that and the wifi will connect to the firestick. That's what I did. No more connection problems. I tried all the tricks and none worked for me either. I wasn't willing g to take the back off of the TV a nd check the modular

    Goodness gracious. I have an LG from around 2017/2018. Nothing worked except taking the back cover off of the TV - Everything looked completely fine, except some dust I blew out. Nothing wrong with the wifi board, but I took it out and put it back in. Took forever to get the tv backing back on. But somehow that worked!

Then I cut the blue tape holding the ribbon cables together and took the tape off separating them. I took a can of air and blew off all the circuit boards. Put the panel back on and hooked everything back up and IT WORKED! The tv and remote work better thank ever. This is the only one that worked for me. 7/4/24

    I tried all the easy fixes in a number of videos and nothing worked. So I tried what I call the ultimate reset. My fios settop box, my audio amplifier, and my LG UK6500AUA tv are all connected to a power strip. Before going to bed, I flipped the power strip switch to off, making the whole setup a brick. In the morning I flipped the switch to on and gave the components a few minutes to power back up and that fixed the problem. My guess that it works because the tv never really goes completely off power in the standby mode.

    I had an extended warranty and this happened about 2 months before the extended warranty was set to expire. They fixed it. Well 2 years later the issue is back again. Only way I could keep connection was to actually hook a cat5 cable from the modem to the tv. Speed also increased too compared to the wifi connection.

    Mine got fixed by changing the location to manual then selecting another country, then manually selecting US. As soon as I changed it, all the updates started working. I also set a manual IP address to mitigate resolution delays. I figured the problem might be a comm resolution between the tv and the new isp router.

    I bought four (4) LG TVs over the course of two and a half years. #1 tuner failure. Still good for gaming. #2 Wi-Fi failed. That's why I'm here. #3 LED issue Blue color shift. It's going to the curb. #4 Bought for GF LED issue Blue color shift AND Wi-Fi fail. Conclusion: LG makes fine TVs but has no Quality Control. Given the rate at which flat screens are going to the dump it's extremely irresponsible to buy these shitty TVs that last two years.
