Guys,
for those with WiFi issue 5GHz (as me) on Oreo 8 (btw,is well known bug since a year ago !), go into the wireless router settings and set your 5GHz network channel to something under 48, let it reboot or save , then you should have your TV 5GHz network back.

I just set manualy channel 44 (before on Auto set channel 149)... save and in my TV WiFi setting already appear (and others) 5GHz WiFi networks.

Edit:
Still hard to connect (2.4 & 5GHz). Need more investigation..... sweat.gif
At least no more..."not in range"....

Alternative option...disable IPv6 in router.

Stock TP-Link C1200,
just order today Archer 2300 ,as 3150 is everywhere out of stock.

Edit:
As noted above,this is well known bug in Oreo 8, so I google and found this "fix".
Btw, will investigate more about this.

ok.

i start to suspect this stock router (i hv one in my drawer, not used since day 2) is the culprit.

i am using asus rtac 1300uhp, no problem with 5ghz for ua6800x 3 ft away with unifi 100mbps.

for older ue6300x, 55ft away, also no problem, can detect 5ghz alto sometimes it's too weak, it falls to 2.4ghz.

Ok, good to let us know.
My new Archer 2300 should arrive in next 2-3 days (bought from Ookla),then I will see.
Seems Android 8 is more sensible on wifi then Android 7.

HI All,
The TV used to be able to show in background after you pressed the HOME button with the HOME menu overlay on top of the show that we are watching. Now with this Android 8.0 update, it doesn't do overlay anymore. Is there any setting that can bring that back? Before the update, the TV looks so high tech, now it looks like a SMART TV instead of ANDROID..  sad.gif  sad.gif

Yea ,I also missing background with HOME menu overlay .... blush.gif
And with Tools button grey setting area is wider then previous.

Even es file can’t read my hard disk file.

I have also report to sharp and they will change the board that have previous firmware

Let us know how they revert back to Android 7 and how to request.
I have also many files in my PC, using es file explorer or VLC to connect...now all gone... blush.gif

Edit:
Somehow I managed to enter my shared files on PC , by reinstalling es file explorer (Network=>LAN) in TV.

Thanks for verifying that its a problem with the update.

I've been going crazy trying to play my movies with VLC.

Super disappointed that it stopped working. Along with the keyboard, i cant type anything anymore and using the phone app doesn't work either.

Can't access display settings or any other advanced setting page anymore either.
Hopefully Sharp fixes the problems with an update quick.

Does anyone know an email or feedback we can all use so we can escalate the problem to sharp?
Btw, anyone know any good apps for watching Hk/china movie/tv shows? preferably easy to use one for my mom

Thanks

VLC and m3u files from PC works in Win7 ,but not in latest Win10.
Same things with keyboard,as you.
WiFi 5GHz.....no back display in Home page...etc,etc..... shakehead.gif shakehead.gif
Very disappointed with this update,from first moment. flex.gif

for 6800x users....

the tv's ethernet port is not gigabit, so it's capped at 100mbps.

if u hv higher broadband speed, use wifi.

wifi module can easily get u >200mbps.

then again, what tv apps need that speed..?! biggrin.gif

Yea, I already mention before.....

Can you please explain how did you disable IPv6?
I'm facing the same "Can not access the network" problem.

IPv6 can be disabled in your router setting.
Btw,
try wired and wifi connection.

You missed the biggest difference which is 50 al1x has direct backlight vs edge for 50ua6800.  It perhaps will contribute to better picture quality. But strangely only the 50 inch has direct backlight in the new al1x series. All the other sizes is still edge backlight.
*
4TC70AL1X is also direct, so only 4TC60AL1X is Edge.

Hi guys, I recently got UA6800X but encountered most of the time not able to find my router 5G, 2.4G no issue. Initial setup time can connect to 5G, 1 hour later after TV software update then encounter unable to find 5G.
Other devices able to connect to router 5G.

1. Does this model support 5G? I suppose it does, if not
    initially should not connect.
2. Anyone else have this issue after recent OTA updates
    for this TV?
3. Any recommendations to solve this issue?

Thanks for reading my issue, have a nice day!

Play with your WIFI 5 GHZ channel number (change from Auto).....in your router.
Bellow 144 should be OK.
