Using your TV in a hotel or dorm room
Hotels, school dorms, conference facilities, and similar locations with public wireless Internet access often require you to
interact with a web page to authenticate your access. These restricted public networks are commonly known as captive
portal networks. When you select a network of this type, the TV automatically detects that additional information is
needed and prompts you through using another wireless device to supply the requested information.
Tips:
•
Using your Roku TV on a hotel or dorm room network requires wireless availability and use of your net-
work-connected smartphone, tablet, or computer to authenticate access to your wireless access point
•
Your TV must already be running software version 7.0 or later. You can find the version number by nav-
igating from the
Home
screen to
Settings
> System > About
. If it is running an earlier software version,
you must use a non-restricted network to link and activate the TV, and then update the software to
version 7.0.
•
Be sure to bring your Roku TV remote control, because the Remote feature of the Roku mobile app may
not work when connected to a hotel or dorm room network.
•
Content might be limited or unavailable if you try to connect outside your home country due to geo-filter-
ing.
To connect your TV to the restricted network:
1.
Either during Guided Setup or after using the
2.
menu to set up a new connection, the TV automatically detects that you are connecting to a restricted network
and displays the following prompt:
Tip
:
Your TV can connect to a restricted network only if
Device connect
is enabled in
Settings > System >
Advanced system settings
. (
Device connect
is enabled by default, but if you have disabled it, the TV cannot
complete the connection.)
Note:
Device connect
is not present if the TV is in non-connected mode.
3. After selecting the correct network, highlight
I am at a hotel or college dorm
, and then press
OK
. The TV
prompts you to use your smartphone, tablet, or laptop to complete the connection.
