Hi,

 

I am having the same problem; the wifi suddenly failed while watching TV. Tried resetting the router and pressing and holding the wifi button on the front panel, nothing seems to work.

 

Thankfully, the internet is still on. The wifi light does not blink even when I pressed the button. LEDs pic attached.

Firmware version: V1.0.1.46_1.0.32

 

Any possibilities to save it?

 

Thank you
