    Netflix VR dropping back to Who's Watching

    I had problems where Netflix VR randomly drops back to the "Who's Watching?" screen without an error message, and I happened to catch a network error message when I tried to sign in at one time, which meant it was not related to overheating but a problem with the network.
    The network problem was traced to roaming between two associated wireless networks during streaming resulting in a dropout when transitioning between wireless networks, so I removed an associated wireless network from my device and the problem was fixed.

    Still wondering why Netflix VR does not give an error message when the network drops out...
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

      IIRC, LOL, reminds me of some PC programs that use the loopback network interface for one portion to talk to another (literally 127.0.0.1, IIRC) and if there's a problem connecting to 127.0.0.1, IIRC, it will just keep bouncing back to the loading screen, IIRC.

      Racer (racer.nl) is one of those, IIRC.

          Samsung UN55JU650DF network/streaming problem
          by howardc64
          Fixed a 9 year old UN55JU650 by replacing backlight. Original backlight LED was still working after 27k! hours but terrible picture of course. Few LEDs were out, 5-6 lens fell off (bright white spots) and another few popped off with slightest force. Surviving LEDs were all slightly blue so picture has a blue tint.

          This TV runs older Tizen OS (updated to latest version, see pic) and have problems with network (wifi or ethernet) connection. The Tizen UI frequently switch to coax input source while changing content sources. . If no good signal (coax not connected, no prior antenna/cable...

          Home network connection problem
          by davg
          I just bought a new ThinkPad laptop and I need to connect it to my home network. I have several computers on my network and can see each other in File Explorer and the older ones can communicate with each other (even with the new one) but the ThinkPad can see the other computers but can't communicate with them. I get the (network error 0x80070035 The network path not found). I tried several scenarios that I found on line but none of them worked?? Since the other computers on the network can communicate fine I'm assuming the problem is with the setup of the ThinkPad? All computers are running Windows...

          Maximum speed should be marked on network ports
          by japlytic
          I noted that a number of consumer entertainment devices have the maximum speed marked on the wired network port and considering that there are broadband plans faster than 100 Mbit, the wired network port can be a bottleneck since some routers do not have Gigabit (only 100 Mbit) support for the WAN port let alone the wired network ports.

          One other thing: Certain low cost network cables only have two pairs which limits speed to 100 Mbit.​
