Remote Chromecast HD not working and no WiFi connection
Since yesterday I can not make a connection between my Chromecast with Google TV HD and its remote. Using another method to navigate doesn't get me really far because I can't op the settings page and the device seems unable to make a connection with my WiFi network.
Is this a known problem? Or does anybody know how to fix it? I tried all the standard procedures to connect the remote and replaced the batteries. I also found a way to make a WiFi connection by using my tv remote to get in Youtube and make a new connection that way. But I can't get out of YT with that remote and rebooting the Chromecast brings me back to a no WiFi state.
It is so weird that both problems emerged at the same time. I see a red dot at the settings sign, so it looks like there is a problem but I can't open it to see what is going on. Did Google bust my device with an update or is it my Chromecast hardware that somehow stopped functioning?
