There's something wonky going on with my internet.
- I have a brand new Samsung QLED Q70A. I had a TCL Roku something or other that I returned trying to solve this exact same issue.
- I'm using a TP-Link AC1750 WiFi router.
Here's what happens:
- I setup the new tv and connect to the 5ghz WIFI.
- It'll connect, but I'll get a message that says something like "Connected to Network, but No Internet Connection"
- However, it does appear that it's connected to the internet. Netflix will work for example. However, Amazon Prime Video will not work.
- If I go to check the internet connection, I continue to get that error.
- This exact thing happened on my TCL TV that I returned just the other day. So it's not the TV (but the TV's give no usable feedback).
- I know it's a network issue. I have pretty slow internet (but it should be usable). I think it may be an internet speed issue. But this is where I get confused.
- I am showing internet speeds of 30-50 mbps wifi from my phone in the same area
- I try a powerline adapter to rule out the wifi, validated on a pc that the powerline adapter gets 40+ mbps, but when I use the powerline adapter with the TV, it is 100% unable to connect to the internet at all.
My questions:
- Why will my powerline adapter not work at all with the TV, but will work with any other device?
- Why will Netflix work, but the wifi shows no internet and Amazon won't work?
My guess is that I'm having some sort of ip conflict of some sort between powerline/wifi and that's why powerline won't work. I'm not sure on the wifi issues, the TV should show internet connectivity if Netflix connects, but it says it isn't.
PLEASEEEEE help
