Your High Sense TV won't connect to
0:02
Wi-Fi and your remote's missing. Don't
0:04
worry, you don't need to buy a new one
0:05
or call support. I'll show you a few
0:07
clever ways to get your TV back online
0:09
in minutes. No remote, no stress. Every
0:12
step in this video is safe to try and
0:14
works on most Highense models. Whether
0:16
it's Roku, Android, or smart TV. Let's
0:20
start with the easiest fix. Using an
0:22
Ethernet cable, take one end of the
0:24
cable and plug it into the Ethernet port
0:26
on the back of your Highsense TV and the
0:28
other end into your Wi-Fi router. Give
0:30
it a few seconds and your TV should
0:32
connect automatically. You don't need to
0:34
open settings or press anything. This is
0:36
the fastest and most reliable way to get
0:38
your TV online and it works immediately
0:40
even without a remote. If your router
0:42
isn't close enough or you don't have a
0:44
cable handy, here's another simple
0:45
method. Grab a USB keyboard and plug it
0:48
into one of the TV's USB ports. Wait a
0:50
few seconds. Most HighSense TVs will
0:52
recognize it automatically. Now try
0:54
using the arrow keys on the keyboard to
0:56
move around the menu. If it works, head
0:58
into settings, find the network or Wi-Fi
1:00
section, and type in your Wi-Fi name and
1:03
password. This trick works surprisingly
1:05
well and is perfect when you can't use
1:06
the remote. Okay, this next trick is a
1:09
smart one, and it only works if your TV
1:11
was connected to Wi-Fi before. On your
1:13
phone, turn on your mobile hotspot and
1:15
rename it exactly the same as your old
1:16
Wi-Fi network. Same name, same password.
1:19
When you turn your TV on, it'll think
1:21
it's connecting to the old network and
1:23
automatically link to your phone's
1:24
hotspot. It's a neat little workaround
1:26
that helps you get your TV online
1:28
instantly. Now that your TV is
1:30
connected, you can turn your phone into
1:31
a remote. Just download the official
1:33
Highense Remote Now app or the Roku app,
1:36
depending on your TV model. Open the
1:38
app, make sure your phone is on the same
1:40
network as your TV, and it should
1:42
automatically detect your device. Once
1:44
connected, you can use your phone to
1:46
control everything, volume, input, and
1:48
even navigate settings to connect to a
1:50
new Wi-Fi network. And while you're at
1:52
it, go into the TV's settings and check
1:54
for a firmware update. This often fixes
1:57
Wi-Fi issues permanently, so it's worth
1:59
doing once you're back online. If your
2:01
phone has an IR blaster, you can use it
2:03
like a regular remote. Just download a
2:05
universal remote app from the Play
2:06
Store, open it, and point your phone at
2:08
the TV. If your High Sense TV supports
2:11
infrared control, it'll respond
2:13
immediately, letting you access menus
2:15
and connect to Wi-Fi, just like with a
2:17
normal remote. If the hotspot trick
2:19
didn't work the first time, try power
2:21
cycling your TV. Unplug it completely
2:23
from the wall outlet and leave it
2:25
unplugged for about 30 minutes. While
2:27
it's off, keep your phone's hotspot
2:29
turned on with the same Wi-Fi name and
2:31
password. After half an hour, plug the
2:33
TV back in and turn it on. This
2:35
refreshes the system and helps the TV
2:37
reconnect to the hotspot automatically.
2:39
And don't worry if your menu looks
2:41
slightly different from mine. Highsense
2:43
models vary a little between Android,
2:45
Roku, and VAS. Just look for options
2:48
labeled network or Wi-Fi, and the steps
2:51
will be nearly identical. I really hope
2:53
one of these tricks got your Hense TV
2:55
connected again. If it did, let me know
