LG Magic Remote Not Working: How to Re-Pair It

When the Magic Remote stops responding or the on-screen pointer disappears, the remote has usually lost its registration with the TV. Re-registering it — unpair with Back + Home, then press the Wheel button — fixes most cases in under two minutes.

LG TV Keeps Disconnecting from Wi-Fi? 8 Fixes That Work

An LG webOS TV that keeps dropping Wi-Fi almost always has a network-side problem — weak signal, an unstable 5 GHz band or a router glitch — not a broken TV. A structured restart plus a fresh connection fixes most cases.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my LG TV show error 106?+

Error 106 is a Wi-Fi connection failure that most often shows up when the TV struggles with a 5 GHz network. Connect the TV to your router's 2.4 GHz band instead, or move the router closer, and the error usually clears.

How do I fix error 137 on an LG TV?+

LG's fix is to set a DNS server manually. Go to Settings → All Settings → General → Network → Wi-Fi Connection → Advanced/Edit, turn off automatic settings, and enter 8.8.8.8 as the DNS server. Note your current DNS setting first so you can restore it if anything stops working.

How do I re-pair the Magic Remote?+

Hold the Back and Home buttons together for about 5 seconds until the power button light blinks — that unregisters the remote. Then point it at the TV and press the wheel (OK) button to register it again.
