Troubleshooting 18THERE ARE SOME SIMPLE THINGS YOU CAN CHECK YOURSELF FIRST

If your GoGo Stick freezes at boot screen for more than 10 minutes, unplug and re-insert power cable.

If the GoGo Logo remains on screen longer than 2 minutes, you may not have enough power from your TV’s USB service port. You will need to power the GoGo with the supplied AC power supply adaptor.

Most technical issues on your GoGotvstick.com can be solved easily by following the advice in this chapter. For additional tips and troubleshooting information, contact support at:

Support: GoGotvstick.com

No Picture displaying Have you selected the correct source, input or channel on your TV?

Are all your connections correct and secure? Your GoGo Stick is connected to power via the AC adapter or through your TV’s powered USB port.

The GoGo Stick is securely connected to the HDMI port and your TV is set to the correct input source. If you had trouble plugging the GoGo Stick into the HDMI port you can use the included HDMI extension cable to give yourself more room.

Is the TV is turned on? Don’t feel ashamed if this is the step that fixes it. Try plugging your GoGo Stick into another HDMI port or another TV if available. If you find it works on another TV then it was a USB power issue.

Remote Connectivity Issues

Check Batteries or fully charge the remote

Check that USB receiver is plugged into the GoGo Stick.

(Air Mouse) Try to reestablish pairing of the remote with the GoGo Stick by holding

down SELECT and HOME for 3 seconds with the remote held next to the receiver on

the GoGo Stick. Try pressing the on/off button on the remote to wake it from standby.

This can happen if you’ve been watching a long movie or had yourself a marathon

session on Netflix. The “GoGo” text on the remote is face up and pointed towards you.

Page 21: User Guide GoGo Smart Tv Stick - Microsoftbranddevelopers.blob.core.windows.net/media... · turn pointer on. This will also lock and unlock lock the pointer. If it is lock the pointer

Check that your wireless network is functioning properly and you haveinternet on your other devices.

When your connected the time should become correct and you see Blue in the Wi-Fi signal bar.

Make sure you’ve entered your password correctly. To enter symbols and numbers you have to hold down the “!123” key while entering and not just press it once. The caps lock key must be pressed again to return to lower case letters (it doesn’t act like a Shift key). You can turn on the on-screen keyboard if you are having trouble or need to enter symbols not shown on the remote keyboard.

The GoGo Stick works on the 2.4Ghz spectrum. If your Wi-Fi network is set to 5Ghz you will need to either change that setting or set up a guest account on the 2.4Ghz spectrum.

If you are unable to see your wireless network tries resetting the router and wait 10-30 seconds before reconnecting. If you are experiencing poor reception or connection speeds we recommend using the HDMI extension cable to move your GoGo Stick away from the back of the TV to eliminate any interference.

HD video streaming requires at minimum an 802.11g Wi-Fi network.If you are experiencing playback issues like lag or poor image quality please check that your router is compatible and set to “G” or “N” speeds. You also may need to change the channel of your router if other devices are causing interference. (Refer to your routers manual)

During set-up, you’ll need to connect your Broadband service via your modem. You can do this either by using a wired Ethernet connection or wirelessly. A range of optional home network extenders is also available which can improve your home network connection. You can find out more about home network extenders at the back of this guide

You can connect your modem using the yellow Ethernet network cable. Your GoGo Stick device will need to be close to both your TV and the modem to let you connect.

If your modem is located in a different room or far away from your TV, why not try a Home Network Extender to ensure the best experience for streaming content to your GoGo Stick. Home Network Extenders are devices that assist in higher signal strength

for your modem, which means the chances of video streaming interruption will be reduced and you can experience better performance
