When my 2021 SamsungTizen TV (software rev 2002) stopped connecting to my Netgear Nighthawk R7000 (with latest firmware rev) 2.4 band wifi, it required a complete reset of TV before it would reconnect to wifi (hidden SSID).
What's curious is why two imposter wifi SSID were listed in "Manage Saved Networks) before I deleted them and also Reset Network, which didn't solve the initial problem.
Did the TV get hacked?
If so, how did it get hacked?
