Chromecast no longer showing ethernet connection, only wifi

harris128 — Sun, 12 Mar 2023 16:19:47 GMT

I have a Samsung TV connected via ethernet to my chromecast until today. Chromcast no longer sees the ethernet option, only wifi. I have reset the modem, the chromecast but still no avail. Now my Samsung says the ethernet cable is not connected.

When I try to set up my home wifi network on the chromecast, although the chromecast sees my home wifi network, it will not connect.

Any ideas? I'm dead in the water.

Hey there harris128,

I apologize for the late response, and thank you for being patient! Were you able to fix that Ethernet issue? If not, I'd be happy to help you figure this out. Go ahead and follow these steps:

Check if your Ethernet cable is properly plugged in.
Swap your Ethernet cable with another one to see if the problem persists.
Restart your Chromecast.
Restart your router.
Check if your router's firmware is up-to-date.
Check if your Chromecast's firmware is up to date.

If you run into any issues or errors while trying those troubleshooting steps, let me know and I can provide some more assistance. I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know.

Best regards,
Jeran
