Unable to connect A1427 Apple TV to Wi-Fi

I can use my AppleTV via an Ethernet cable but can’t connect wirelessly to myWiFi.


I enter the WiFi name and click enter and is says it can’t connect. It isn’t prompting me for a password

  1. Try the steps as mentioned in: If your Apple TV can't connect to Wi-Fi - Apple Support
  2. Try the ‘Other…’ option instead of selecting a listed discovered network. Especially if the password has been changed.
  3. For Apple TV (4th generation or earlier), verify that the router or access point isn’t set to use WPA3, as only device models from ~2018 or later support that. Instead use ‘WPA2/WPA3 Transitional’. Some users report that they had to set ‘WPA2’-only first.
