WHY

FIX

Unplug accessories (soundbar/HDMI hubs) briefly too, wait a minute, reconnect power, and open LG.
Update system software first, then LG, then reboot so both layers load fresh.
Uninstall LG, reboot, reinstall, sign in, and check whether CHECK-NETWORK returns.
Forget the Wi‑Fi network on the device, reboot router, reconnect, and check CHECK-NETWORK.
