Wired LAN Connection

[PAC1972]

I’m trying to connect my SONY BRAVIA 49XE8005 through a BT powerline miniconnector to a BT SmartHub. Initially it worked fine, then just stopped.

WIFI works well, but we have lots of devices in the house and LAN seemed a better option for the TV.

When I check the network status the wired LAN says ‘checking’ and provides a valid IP address. My router can see the Android TV - but no internet content.

I have reset the TV and the router, reset and changed the power line adapters. Nothing works.

Hi  I have the same problem did you get an answer to this question.  I cannot look  at the answer as it tells me this answer does not exist.  I also think my VPN affects this connection,  when I turn off my VPN the checking does not appear.

Hey WebberA,

Could you share the model of your TV with us and make sure that the Date & Time settings are correct as well as being set to "Use Network Time"?

This has been shared on the forums a lot lately as a solution for similar network mishaps.
