    Thank you so much for this. My husband and I just moved and after 2 days of unpacking, figured we’d take a break, sit, have pizza, and watch Stranger Things. To our horror we could not find the Roku remote. After an hour of panic, we happened find your video, and miraculously, we found our old wifi info. We were able to set it up and watch our show in peace. Thank you so much for this video! What a gift!

    Bro I had an old tv from a house I lived in two years ago and had no remote or wifi connection to set the TV back up today. I looked at my old wifi connections on my phone and used your method and got it working. You’re a legend thank you so much

    You are a massive legend! I had some trouble trying to recall SSID, but looking at the settings of some old gaming consoles helped me out. But this whole method worked exactly as you said it would! 2 of our tv's had no remotes after my nieces got their hands on them and lost them to the shadow realm. Really saved us with this process!

    Man I was looking all over the net and the tubes for this solution. You had it the whole time thanks for sharing the knowledge on a most likely rare situation where you have no remote, no menu, (app set-up or input buttons on the tv (all I have is a power button under the tv). Your video made me the man on the scene for the night and saved the day.

    Hello Jason, I just wanted to say thank you very much. My Roku remote stopped working. I reset the WiFi box about 20 times, troubleshooted the remote and nothing worked. I watched your video not knowing I can use my phone as the remote. It had taken me less than two minutes to set up everything. Thanks again!😊

My husband had plenty, but we could NOT get it to connect to his. Changed his hotspot name and password to the same as mine and it connected 🙌 you are seriously a legend!

    You are a god! Thank you so much for this video!! I have a Roku stick that I lost the remote and have been using the app for a while. I just got a new wifi router and had no way to access or connect a remote and this just solved my problem. Thanks so much!
