Samsung Smart TV immediately exits 'Scanning for Network', can't get around it

[Grommet5566]

Title says it all. About 6 months ago my smart TV features stopped working including netflix and amazon. Whenever I try to update anything, it tells me it is not connected to the network (WiFi). Upon scanning, it will pull up options for maybe 1/3 of a second, then exits back to the main Smart TV screen.

Any ideas?

I found this solution on Cnet which helped me with my tv wifi issue, i have a samsung UN55ES8000 TV


Problems: Ue65es8000
while doing wifi network search it would suddenly skip out or just close the menu completely ....
no connect to wifi or nothing comes up while scanning for wifi
in secret menu: sometimes i saw wifi MAC and sometime it show fail massage

solution :
turn tv off
with tv off press the following on the remote: info > menu > mute > power ( it is secret or service menu ) >>>> on my tv i had to press Mute>1>8>2>power to enter service mode
be careful, don't change others things
go to: Control > sub option and change "wifi region" and chose A
go back
go to: SVC > SVC reset

now your tv will restart again and ask you to config it

I hope it works for you too

Thanks for posting! This worked for me.
