Choosing a WiFi Extender for an LG TV

An extender may help when the LG TV is in a weak-signal spot; confirm the connection type and address the router link before troubleshooting apps.

A WiFi extender for an LG TV is worth considering when the TV's built-in WiFi receives a weak signal in its current location. First check the LG TV's network status and your router coverage. An extender can relay a usable signal; if the TV has Ethernet and the extender offers a compatible port, a wired connection between them may be another option.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

Can I use a WiFi extender with an LG smart TV?

In most cases the TV can connect to a compatible extended WiFi network like any other router network. Verify the exact TV model's wireless and security support.

Can I connect an LG TV to an extender with Ethernet?

If the TV has a LAN port and the extender supports Ethernet client access, connect them with a cable and configure the extender as directed by its maker.

Why does my LG TV keep disconnecting from WiFi?

Possible causes include weak signal, router settings, interference or TV software. Check the TV's network diagnostics and test another device before deciding an extender is needed.

Where should I put an extender for my LG television?

Choose an outlet between the router and TV where the router signal is still usable. Use the extender's link indicator or app guidance to refine the position.
