If you TV is no longer connecting to wifi, this solution worked for many of us.  Press and hold the power button on the Samsung TV Remote until the TV shuts off and comes back on. Then configure for the wifi.

Cheers,

Barbara

I just solved the wifi problem.  I tried everything.  I called Samsung twice and they helped me try everything again. Finally, the second gal said I have a problem that they don't know anything about and I needed to call a  licensed Samsung repair facility.  So I called.  They said they would come out for $109 to assess the fix and charge me possibly more to fix the TV.  I said thanks but no.  I found a used wifi module on Ebay.  I installed it today and wifi works perfect!  The first Samsung tech gal was rude and unhelpful.  The second gal was more knowlegeable and helpful, but lied through her teeth when she said Samsung has no knowledge of any wifi issues.  THEY SHOULD STEP UP AND GIVE EVERYONE A NEW WIFI MODULE AS SOON AS THEY CALL.  THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SEEM TO BE USING IT AS A PROFIT CENTER FOR THEIR SERVICE REPS. BS.

I have had this issue once before and resetting the tv from the romote worked then.  It's happened again and I've tried everything listed, and nothing is working.

Hi. I hold the power button down on remote and it turns off. But red light keeps blinking and doesn't turn back on until I let button go and push again?.. Then goes back to same screen.

Go into the router. Rename 5ghz name or if you can’t disable 2.4 ghz. It has issues switching between them. It worked for me.
