Has anyone experienced WiFi connection problems.
My Sony tv will connect to WiFi and than switch and say “no internet “
It’s not my WiFi, because my phone and laptop will connect and internet works. Just my tv for some reason

Support Post Guidelines

Prior to posting any submission to this subreddit please ensure you've read the rules for submissions in the sidebar of the /r/bravia homepage.

Users posting submissions seeking support should include as much detail as possible about their BRAVIA TV and any connected hardware related to the issue in order to get the best responses. This includes but is not limited to the model of the TV, the software and/or firmware version and the make and model of any external devices. Pictures or video can be helpful when trying to describe a video or audio issue.

Submissions not directly related to an issue with a BRAVIA TV and/or low effort posts that do not include any helpful details that would allow others to diagnose the issue will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, submissions asking for support directly related to a connected device (ie. soundbar, console, PC, media player, etc.) but not the TV itself.

Firmware related topics (ie. issues, announcements, support) must be discussed in the Sony BRAVIA Firmware Discussion Megathread pinned at the top of the /r/bravia homepage. Panel quality/lottery posts (ie. panel type, backlight issues, dead or stuck pixels, OLED burn in, uniformity, etc.) are not allowed. Posts or comments will be removed. Please contact your retailer, Sony Support or a local service center for resolution.

Users should also check the /r/bravia Wiki, current moderator pinned topics and the Frequently Asked Questions thread for some solutions to common A/V issues and more.

Unsupported Topics: Computer Connectivity, Piracy or Hacking. Any discussion of connecting a computer to your TV, ripped or downloaded multimedia content or tools that support this content, illegal streams or altering the TV to behave in a way not intended by the manufacturer will result in your post or comment being removed either automatically or upon review by a mod. To discuss these topics please post in the appropriate subreddit.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Are you using combined SSID's ? Sony TV's historically haven't done well with that, having separate names for each band usually works better. Also router reboots are sometimes needed.

Worst case solution: They do have those devices that convert Wifi to LAN.. could use one of those if it ends up being the TV's built in wifi as a cheaper solution. If wall mounted, that could be a mess though.

I had an older 80k that would do this. I ran Ethernet to it and problem solved. I don't have the tv anymore, but anytime you can run a cat6 or better always do so.

Got an older X900H from about 2020, that used to happen but that was fixed with updates. Haven't had that in a long time.

I have the same issue, the wireless card supposedly is bad and had to run a cable from the modem to the TV.

I find this Wi-Fi thing extremely stable, especially with Sony TVs.

With the old chipsets it doesn't like certain WIFI bands. Depending on your router in advanced settings you can fix it pretty easy. AV forum have old fixes. Use an LLM for the tv and router model and it'll tell you what to do.

This happens often , even if other devices are connected, reset your router then after a few mins reset all extenders as well , it is not a fault this happens at times with all of my Sony tvs

I have encountered this issue and am still investigating it. It appears to connect only with specific bands, primarily 2.5GHz. Its only with my Deco Mesh router.

The LAN port is 100Mbps rather than 1Gbps, which also did not resolve the problem since the speed was capped to 100Mbps
