Restart Your Router and Modem:This can help refresh your [internet connection](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/23135/how-to-check-for-an-active-internet-connection-on-iphone-sdk) and improve speed.\
Move Closer to the Router: Ensure that your smart TV is not too far from the Wi-Fi router. Walls and other obstacles can impact signal strength. If possible, move the router closer to your TV or vice versa.\
