Apple TV network unavailable

My Apple TV has always connected to my wifi just fine but all of a sudden it keeps saying "the network is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." I have restarted my TV and unplugged, and plugged it back in, and also unplugged and plugged back in the router. The wifi is working on my other devices so I know it isn't a wifi issue but I would like to know how to fix this.

Do you have the Apple TV box? If so, which model?

and check for network interference.

I don’t recognize that exact phrase as a notification from the Apple TV box. Could it be that your TV is giving this message overlayed over the Apple TV video, rather than the Apple TV box itself?

These asinine “help” responses like “do ya have the cable plugged in man?” “Maybe it’s your tv giving you that message?!?” Are not helpful.


Instead of posting a Captain Obvious answer, just don’t post.


Canned “support” replies with a link to 50 options to try, that never seem to work, are inundating these support forums. I wish you guys would stop posting all together instead of wasting people’s time. Yes, I’m certain it’s my Apple TV telling me that my Apple TV is having network issues. Why and how, would my Sony TV be telling me that my Apple TV is having network issues?
