LG and your Wi-Fi
2 LG products in the Compatibility Index, averaging 60/100 for how well they cope with ordinary home Wi-Fi. Checked September 2026.
- LG smart TV68/100
Wi-Fi aerials point backwards into the wall, so a TV on a bracket often gets a worse signal than your phone in the same room.
Most common complaint: Buffering on 4K, or the TV drops off Wi-Fi every night.
- LG ThinQ appliance52/100
Same kitchen-metal problem, plus a setup process that trips up on modern router settings more often than most.
Most common complaint: Setup gets to the last step and fails, again and again.
