My WebOS tv will not pick up WiFi anymore. It says searching and never finds it. This has been going on now for about 3-4 months. I keep calling LG and they keep repeating the same thing. I’ve tried every way and it still won’t connect. Why did it stop? It’s annoying me!

A little more information on which TV, the webOS and firmware versions would go some way to forum members giving you help and advise.

Also, you may to look at this thread:

Some users have installed replacement modules, while others have disconnected and reconnected cables to get their WiFi working again.

perhaps try using Powerline plugs instead, cheaper than buying a whole new TV, and avoids having network cables running around your room/house too.   The Network is fed from the router, through the nearest power socket, through your house mains, into the closest socket to the TV, and then via ethernet cable into back of your TV, a wired network connection.

      My 50UT80506LA LG WebOs TV does not support my office security camera system via wifi to TV. We need (gCmob app) in list of app.
      By Ramesh Chand Vishwakarma
      It is unprofessional on part of LG TV that they do not resolve the basic issue of adding app gCmob in their app store.

      I can't connect my office camera via Wi-Fi to LG-TV. No body in LG TV technical team is proactive in resolving the issue of customer. They are more happy to befool the customers, rather than looking for technical solution through wider thinking.
      Please talk to you top management and make a visit to our office to understand the customers plight..
      Please respond to customers needs.

      Issues with LG TV and weird WiFi behaviour
      By Guest
      I recently bought a new router (Unify Dream Router) and after a couple of weeks of struggle, I managed to set it up with my ISP's VDSL connection (FFTC) using a third party modem in bridge mode (NETGEAR D6400).
      Everything seemed to be working fine until I realised I couldn't open the Netflix app on my LG Smart TV. After a bit of investigation, I realised nothing except for YouTube and the Browser was working. Just to make this clear: the WiFi connects fine, I can access all websites through the LG Browser, and I have no issues with YouTube, but nothing else works.
      All the regular streaming apps fail to open and, most importantly, the LG Content Store fails to load. Before I fixed my network, the tv was working fine. If I switch to my phone's hotspot, everything works fine.
      Things that I've tried:
      factory resetting the tv leaving the tv unplugged to delete cache using google's DNS on the TV using a wired connection  Having said so, I am so lost that I would be happy to try anything again.

      Wifi issue
      By loafty
      Tv  connects to wifi and can stay connected for couple of days then I will switch tv on and internet (wifi) will be disconnected so go to connect up again and tv can't find any networks so turn off and unplug from power wait 5 to 10 minutes then plug all back in go to wifi settings might be lucky to find my network select and enter password and works again. Only thing is I got a different modem from internet provider and they have told me that the modem is working fine but I have never had an issue like this with tv before. Tv states wifi is turned off but I can't find anywhere that I can turn wifi on in the tv, does anyone know ?? Tried calling LG didn't get much help at all, I am 71 years old and just want my tv working the way it should so hope someone can help. Thanks

      How to accept a WiFi connection from a Linux PC desktop using the remote
      By makem
      I have a  LG OLED55C14LB WebOS TV in the same room as my xubuntu desktop computer and router.

      I have installed Gnome Network Displays on the Linux PC and both machines are on the same 5G network.

      When I connect the PC to the TV via WiFi the TV puts up a 'cancel' option and no option to connect. The Network display app only has an option to 'Return' which closes the connection.

      If I do nothing and wait the connection times out and returns to the TV program. The TV is obviously waiting for permission to connect.

      I cannot see any way to 'accept' the connection via the TV remote. Can anyone tell me how to accept the connection?
      In addition, is it possible to have the TV remember the WiFi password? Passwords are complex nowadays and it is a pain to keep having to input it. This make casting your desktop a chore.
