No reason to fret, though, as you can easily solve the connection issue. This guide lists several troubleshooting steps<\/strong> to get Roku working as it should within a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roku usually checks your connection for a few seconds after entering your network credentials<\/strong>. This starts with the network connection, then goes to the internet connection. Unfortunately, Roku can get stuck in the second step after successfully checking your network connection<\/strong>. This is usually referred to as the Roku checking connection loop in troubleshooting forums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not Connected To the Internet<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Roku not connected to the internet error is quite common, and it\u2019s usually caused by an issue with your internet connection, not the device<\/strong>. The error will show up if a streaming channel fails to connect to the internet when launching it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loading <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Roku \u201cloading, please wait\u201d error is similar to Roku not being connected to the internet. The error usually occurs when your device loses internet connection during a program playback<\/strong>. You\u2019ll get an option to exit and set up a connection, but you won\u2019t likely need it unless you have a second wired or wireless connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ways to Fix Roku Not Connecting To WiFi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are several ways you can solve the above Roku TV not connecting to WiFi errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check the Internet Connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This should be the starting point whenever you experience any Roku connection errors<\/strong>. This is because the local network is usually stable for the most part, but it may lose internet connection due to issues with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). To check if this is the issue, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Navigate to Settings <\/strong>using the directional arrows on your remote.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Select Network, <\/strong>then Network page.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    On the network page, you will have two options. One is checking whether you have a network connection, and the other is testing the strength of your network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
