What is your model Apple TV box? Identify your Apple TV model - Apple Support


What happen when you try to connect to Wi-Fi?


Try these:

  1. If your Apple TV can't connect to Wi-Fi - Apple Support
  2. Try the ‘Other…’ option instead of selecting a listed discovered network. Especially if the password has been changed.
  3. If your model is 4th generation or older, then verify that the router or access point isn’t set to use WPA3, as only device models from ~2018 or later support that. Instead use ‘WPA2/WPA3 Transitional’.
