7. Press the ‘OK’ button to connect to the network.
If your Roku device does not automatically connect to your wireless network, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:
1. Restart your Roku device by unplugging the power adapter and waiting for a few seconds before plugging it back in.

3. Check for any interference from other electronic devices, such as cordless phones or microwaves, that may be causing signal issues.
