Amazon Fire TV Stick: Can't connect to new Wi-Fi...

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 11:04:15 -0700

My firestick is connected to my old Wi-Fi and that Wi-Fi is off now but I'm trying to connect it to my new Wi-Fi and it's not allowing me because it's telling me that it's not connected to my home network. My remote won't allow me to get into my settings to change the Wi-Fi. Can someone help me? Also the charger that came with the firestick is gone so I am using my phone charger. Is that a problem? Help me please someone!

Amazon Fire TV: Lost remote, New WiFi I can’t connect without the remote.

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 23:50:50 -0700

I have a new WiFi. My Amazon Fire TV is stuck on my network settings screen. I lost the remote, and now cannot pair my device with my FireTv app on my phone. What do I do? Switched TVs, didn’t work. Unplugged it a million times. Is there no way to do a factory reset without having access to some kind of remote???

Amazon Fire TV Stick: How to factory reset the Fire stick without any remote or app?

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 09:10:30 -0700

Why is my Fire Stick disconnected from the internet after I ran a "Share it app"? The remote also stopped working. I can't use the Fire TV Remote App as the Stick has no internet access.

I sideloaded an android app "share it" it on firestick but when I tried to send the data from my phone to fire stick, the screen just froze. I had to restart the TV but by then fire stick had lost the network access. Fire Tv -Stick is dispaying "No network access" message. Earlier it was connected to two modems but now its not detecting either of them. Somehow remote also stopped working. I tried two diffrent physical remotes (with fresh batteries) but now I can't navigate inside it by any means.

I don't know the reason but I guess the ‘share it’ app tried to create a shared hotspot network to allow data transfer but maybe fire stick is not configured for it.

Is there any method to factory reset the device without turning it on ?

Is it ok for me to power my fire tv stick using the USB port built into my television? The instruction manual says not to but I have been powering mine this way for about a week and have not had any issues. Will using the USB port on my TV affect the performance or damage my fire tv stick over time?
