Fix problems with your Google TV device

1. From the Google TV home screen, select Settings Network & Internet.
2. Make sure that Wi-Fi is turned on and that you’re connected to the right network.
   • If your router has multiple network bands, check that you’re also connected to the correct band.
3. Open one of your apps.
4. Play your video, music, or game again.

Tip: You can only use secure Wi-Fi networks, like WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK. Unsecured networks don't show up on Google TV.

If Wi-Fi is turned on but you have a slow connection, try to adjust your router. You can try to:

• Reboot your router, or unplug it and plug it back in.
• Move your router closer to your TV.
• Use a cable to connect your router to your TV.

If it’s available with your router, set up a 5 GHz network instead of a 2.4 GHz network. For more detail, check with your router manufacturer.

With some routers, you can also set a priority device in the Google Home app. Learn how to set a priority device.

1. On your computer, go to Google Play.
2. Find the game you want to play.
3. Select Install or Installed.
4. Under "Choose a device," look for your Google TV device. 
   • If it’s dimmed, the game isn’t compatible with your Google TV device.

Important: You might need to remove and reinsert the batteries on your remote. If that doesn't solve the issue, try to update your remote.
