tvOS 16.3 loses Wi-Fi • Apple TV 4K requires restart

Ever since installing the tvOS 16.3 on my Apple TV 4K, it abruptly loses its Wi-Fi internet connectivity across different apps with no buffering insures before. At the same time, my other Wi-Fi devices maintain great strength at 400+ mbps. Even my other non-4K Apple TV with v16.3 works just fine.

The only solution is to go to the Apple TV 4K’s system settings and “restart” or physically unplug and replug in my Apple TV. Force quitting the apps doesn’t work.

I never experienced this in previous tvOS versions. Anyone else experiencing this?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 16

Hi DP82,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

We understand that you're experiencing connectivity issues with your Wi-Fi since updating your Apple TV. To address this behavior, restart your Apple TV, router, and modem.

"After you restart each device, see if you still need help.

On the Apple TV menu, go to Settings > System and select Restart.

Unplug your router and your cable or DSL modem from power. Then plug them back in."

Find these steps and more in If your Apple TV can't connect to Wi-Fi - Apple Support.

Regards.
