Navigating the web. Once you have a web browser open, you can start navigating the web. To do this, use the arrow keys on your remote to move the cursor around the screen. To click on a link, press the OK button on your remote.
Entering text. To enter text into a web browser, use the on-screen keyboard. To open the on-screen keyboard, press the asterisk (*) button on your remote. Then, use the arrow keys to move the cursor around the keyboard and press the OK button to select a letter.
Troubleshooting
I can’t connect to the internet. Make sure that your TCL Roku TV is connected to a Wi-Fi network. To check your connection, go to the Settings menu and select “Network.” Then, select “Wireless” and make sure that your TV is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network.
The web browser is not working. If the web browser is not working, try restarting your TV. To do this, unplug your TV from the power outlet and then plug it back in.
I can’t find the web browser I want to install. The Roku Channel Store does not have all web browsers available. If you can’t find the web browser you want to install, you can try sideloading it. To do this, you will need to use a third-party app such as Downloader.
