linksys velop keeps disconnecting my smart tv, how do i check the connection strength?

— asked by David

Check the device details and consider a wired connection for stability.

  • In the Linksys app, go to Devices and tap on your TV.
  • View the Wi-Fi details shown for that device to assess signal strength.
  • For a permanent fix, connect the TV directly to a Velop node using an Ethernet cable (CAT5e or higher) plugged into one of the Gigabit Ethernet ports.

If placement is the issue and you're using multiple nodes, ensure your TV is connected to the closest node. The system's Channel Finder (in Advanced Settings) can also help—it searches for the most-open Wi-Fi channels to ensure the best performance, especially in multi-node setups.
