This error indicates that the TV is not connecting to the internet. Check your internet connection. If your using WiFi, try restarting the WiFi router. Check if your TV has the correct WiFi information. OR, if using a hardwired CAT5 network connection, make sure it is connected securely.
1: a netflix account with active subscription and 2: a working internet provider with a WiFi connection or LAN cable plugged in the back of the tv (if its a smart tv if not a media capable pc is needed or BluRay player)
Check Your connection! to see if what You are watching is making good connection! Be it cable, sat, antenna! Try a dvd, if it works find, the before is the prob! If it is sat. check signal! if cable, try unpluging everything to reset! Missed the netflix! Make sure you have a good wifi connection, and as before, unplug your router, modem and re plug
Hello Anony, the best way is to buy a 'dongle' there is several the one that comes to mind is ChromeCast, from Google. Hope that helps Anony. Cheers Greg.
Don't go to inputs/sources. Go to Menu, Settings, Network and follow the instructions on how to connect your TV to your home network. Your TV must have WiFi built in and you must have a wireless (WiFi) home network. And your TV should have the Netflix app preloaded and you need a Netflix account (30-day free trial; $8.99/month after the trial period ends).
1. are you within range of your WIFI?
2. check your network settings. are you connected to WIFI?
2. How strong is the signal?
3. How fast is the internet in your house? Should be greater than 6Mb/s (at least) for streaming Netflix.
4. Can you use other smart features?
5. Did you input the correct username and password for Netflix? Try on your computer or another device.
6. Maybe you need to activate your TV from another device by visiting netflix.com/activate and entering a code that is on your TV.
turn off everything including the internet router etc and power them all up and try again. maybe try netflix on your pc to see if its your internet connection speed
I had the same problem with my Vizio XVT473SV. I couldn't find the Netflix Activation Code. When I clicked on the Netflix App, the TV would ask me if I wanted to connect to Netflix, then it would ask me if I was a Netflix member. After clicking yes to both, it would tell me it couldn't connect to the Netflix server, check with Netflix.com/tvhelp. After a couple hours of troubleshooting, the solution was......your first use of the Netflix App has to be via the Ethernet Port/Cable. This will give you a screen with the Activation Code, after you activate the code in your Netflix account, you can go back to using WiFi on your Vizio TV to connect to Netflix. Step by step instructions are... 1) Exit the VizioNetflix App. 2) Physically connect an Ethernet cable to your broadband (just temporarily) 3) Check to make sure the Vizio is using the Ethernet port and not your WiFi (Apps Button - HDTV Settings - Network...may have to reboot the TV to get Ethernet port connection) 4) Start the VizioNetflix App 5) Click OK to start the Netflix App 6) You should now see a different screen that gives you the Netflix Activation Code. 7) On your Computer, Login in to Netflix, 8) Click on "Your Account & Help" link on upper right corner 9) Scroll down to Watching Instantly on your TV or Computer section 10) Click on Activate a Netflix Ready Device 11) Enter the Activation Code shown on your Vizio TV and click Activate 12) Once your Netflix account (on your computer) shows it is active, your Vizio TV will automatically log in. You should see your Instant Queue. 13) Exit the Netflix App, unplug the Ethernet cable, Turn Off your Vizio TV. 14) After 20 seconds or so (remember the TV is software driven), turn the TV back on and your WiFi should connect again. 15) Use your Netflix App and this time it should automatically connect via WiFi note: just make sure that your wireless DSL/Cable Modem or Wireless Router is not blocking your WiFi connection request from the Vizio. You can check the connection status in the modem/router or in the Vizio in the HDTV Settings - Network.
