How To Connect Amazon Fire Stick To Wifi 2 Methods

Use the included adapter and plug the Fire Stick directly into a power outlet on the wall if you see a message saying the Fire Stick is getting insufficient power.

If you don’t see your preferred network, select “Rescan” at the bottom of the list. If your preferred network is hidden, select “Join Other Network” at the bottom of the list and manually type the name of the network you want to connect to. [1] X Research source

You can press the Home button on the remote to return to the Fire Stick’s Home screen.

Use this method if you don’t have the Fire Stick remote and are sure your TV accepts CEC input. Most modern Smart TVs do.

Go to Settings > Display & sounds > HDMI CEC Device Control in the Fire Stick settings. On your TV, the CEC settings might be called something else, like E-link, SimpLink, EZ-Sync, Viera Link, Easy Link, Anynet +, Bravia Sync, or something similar.

You’ll need to troubleshoot if you’re having issues like not being able to connect to your Wi-Fi or seeing “Home is Currently Unavailable” errors. This can also work if the videos you’re streaming are buffering or stuttering constantly. Try to reconnect to your Wi-Fi network. You should try this between each troubleshooting step.

Try to connect to Wi-Fi again if you made any changes here.

If you don’t see it, make sure your network isn’t hidden in your router settings. Try to connect to your Wi-Fi again if you’ve made any changes.

After forgetting the network, connect again and see if that fixed your issue. If not, continue to the next step.

If possible, move your router and Fire Stick closer together. Try connecting to your Wi-Fi network again.
