If you can connect to the internet on your gadget and the TV does not connect to the internet, select the Smart element of the TV, find the browser icon and and select. The sign up screen for the Tranquil Otter Guest wifi should then display on the screen informing you that you are connected you to the internet. Select done. If the internet is not working in your lodge, please turn the router on and off at the mains socket, we have marked the plug that connects the router to the mains. Please do not handle the router as this may damage the router. A functioning router should display three lights. If you have tried the above and still cannot connect, please let us know asap by email. We have a support contract for our connection and need to alert our contractor as soon as we can.No connection to Netflix
The Netflix app on Samsung appears to be the least stable app.- Turn TV off and then on after 30 seconds. If this does not allow you to connect to the app, please send us an email.
- If you are comfortable with technology, the next step is to uninstall the app from the TV and reinstall it.
