    Why is your Roku TV even on the Wi-Fi if you just block its internet?

      They have models that blink the large white LED light until it’s connected to WiFi. Annoying as hell.

          Yeah, I suppose. I don’t use the rock UI, it goes straight into the Apple TV when powered on so I don’t really care that much.

        Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that - mine does do this, and the LED is right in the bottom middle, and it’s super bright.

      It probably doesn’t need to be - but it was required to set up. Before I had my shield, I allowed local connections for local streaming, but you are correct, it’s probably no longer necessary.
