I am sorry to hear you are facing this issue
Router issues are the most common culprits of TV disconnection problems. For starters, your router must be in the right place. That is, that it shouldn't be too far away from your TV. This is especially the case if you are hoping to stream HD movies and shows.

    Home>Settings>Network>Set up connection.
    Here choose the Wired option.
  • The Roku TV will check your Wired connection and Internet Connection before showing a confirmation.
