I bought a JVC TV in April and set it up straight away and it worked fine for a couple of months but in the last few weeks it keeps dropping the WiFi. I did the Virgin online chat and they updated the WiFi so I have a 2.4 and 5 option to log into but the TV only picks up the 2.4 and very intermittently even though the signal checker says the WiFi is great in the room with the TV.
I can connect to my phone as a hotspot so it seems to be an issue with the Virgin WiFi.
Can anyone give me some advice?
FYI I have reset the TV and reset the router using the small pin reset button.
Thanks!

Did VM also disable Smart Optimisation for the wifi? If not, log onto the Hub and disable it. Download a wifi scanner for your phone and set the 2.4g wifi to the best channel. This should help.

Hi Chary87,
That's great advice from Aduxxi.
I would also double check that the TV settings has the correct time and date, if it hasn't that may stop you connecting to the internet.

Thank you Aduxxi. I tried that but it didn't seem to help. I've bought a powerline adapter now so using an ethernet cable from that to the TV which is working fine.
Thank you for your help though:)
