Why does a Fire TV Wi‑Fi sign-in page appear every morning on my Samsung TV?
Answer
The Fire TV stick is likely losing Wi‑Fi overnight. Power-cycle the Fire TV and Samsung TV, forget/rejoin Wi‑Fi on the Fire TV, and test a phone hotspot overnight. If the login screen returns only on home Wi‑Fi, fix router 2.4/5 GHz stability or IP conflicts.
Before you start: stop right away if…
- A factory reset of Fire TV removes apps and sign-ins—use it only after reconnect tests fail.
Follow these steps
Power-cycle Fire TV and TV
Turn equipment off, unplug the Fire TV for 60 seconds and the Samsung TV for 60 seconds, plug the Fire TV in first, let it boot, then power the TV.
You should see: Both devices start cleanly on the Fire TV home screen.
Rejoin Wi‑Fi on Fire TV
On Fire TV, open network settings, forget the current Wi‑Fi network, reconnect with the password, and confirm a successful connection test.
You should see: Fire TV reports connected with working internet.
Test overnight on a hotspot
Connect Fire TV to a phone hotspot overnight. If the morning page disappears, the home router/Wi‑Fi path is the likely cause.
You should see: You know whether the home network is dropping the Fire TV overnight.
Stabilize the home network
Give the Fire TV a consistent 2.4 GHz or stable SSID, reduce router night power-saving if enabled, and reboot the router. Recheck the next morning.
You should see: The TV powers into Fire TV without a Wi‑Fi setup page.

Extra tips
What to look for: Whether the screen is Fire TV’s Wi‑Fi setup versus a streaming-app login, and whether other devices stay online overnight.
Before you change anything: Know your Wi‑Fi password. Note whether you power the TV from the Fire TV remote CEC control. Avoid factory reset until simpler reconnect steps fail.
