What could be the solution?
If your Firestick is continuously disconnecting, you can try the following quick solutions to solve the problem-
Bring the network closer.
Reset the TV
To correct the connection of Firestick with the TV, first of all, try restarting the TV. Sometimes when the connection wires lose, then also Firestick gets disconnected. In this situation, set off the TV and remove all the plugs. After a few minutes, connect the plugs again and restart the television set.
Reset the Fire Stick
Restarting devices can sometimes solve connection problems. If Firestick is disconnecting because of some minor issues in Firestick, it might get better once restarted. You can restart the Firestick by going to the settings option of your device.
Update the Fire Stick
If you are running the older version of Firestick, it will create various problems. Disconnection of Firestick is also one of those problems. So, if your Firestick is continuously disconnecting from the TV and you are still using the older version of it, then first of all install the latest version. You can see the system update option in the setting column of your Firestick.
Do a speed test
When internet speed is slow, your Firestick will disconnect from the TV. It will keep disconnecting if the speed doesn’t improve. To know the speed of the internet, you can do a speed test.
To perform a speed test, first, run a reconnection process of the router. Then through any speed check site, perform the speed test. If your router is continuously working slow, you need to contact the service provider.
Check for LAN protocol.
One thing you should check in your router setting is the LAN protocol. If your network is poor and Firestick is disconnecting, there might be chances that the LAN settings in the router have changed. Check for it and correct the settings to connect the Firestick.
