AppleTV3 stuck in ethernet - no cable connected
Ever since I replaced my household router with a new D-Link 655, the AppleTV's (I have more than one) have had a really hard time.
They can the server, then they don't... they can make changes like "Show as watched" but can't start video streaming... I can't start a show from the AppleTV but can 'push' it to that unit from the server iTunes... Meanwhile the unit surfs the internet just fine. And all other network services are fine including things like wi-fi streaming from a laptop to my network enabled bluray player. All of that I can half blame on the router doing weird stuff.
What I can't blame on the router is...
As part of my diagnosis of the problems I tried putting the living room apple tv 3 on ethernet to see if it the above problems got better. Nope.
So I put it backin the living room, meaning its on wi-fi again... Only it won't flip back to wi-fi. It still thinks its on ethernet even though there is no Cat6 plugged into it. No amount of restart or resetting will get it to change to wifi.
Is there some way to force it back to wi-fi? Leaving it unplugged from power for 2 weeks didn't reset it.
