Samsung HD TV Will Not Connect To Cable Box

Samsung HD TV Will Not Connect To Cable Box We just bought a new Samsung HD Smart TV? Took forever to hook up to our Xfinity Box. Yesterday lost stations on that TV. Xfinity said the box was bad and we had to get a new cable box. We are on the 2nd one today and can not get it to connect to the TV. Says no signal.

We had the same problem and our cable guy figured it out for us…the newer Samsung TVs require a 4DK hdmi canoe, or hdmi 2. He hooked it up and we now have everything. The salesman should have told us when we purchased it!

Weird,when just used the HDMI cable the pic wasn’t that good. So I also plug in my coax cable also. Now I’m not having ANY bad pics. It comes in really clear. (USA, Xfinity).

We had Comcast Xfinity technician install our service: tv cable box and wifi router. Everything worked well day one. Day two, no tv channels. Called Comcast and Kelly tried to reboot cable box remotely, but unsuccessfully. She scheduled an appointment for a technician to come to our home, and suggested using Xfinity streaming app (free) to watch tv over Internet. Before I could download the app, I had to manually set up the wireless connection from my Samsung tv to my Xfinity wifi router (SSID and password) using my Samsung remote. After doing so, magically, my tv channels reappeared. Everything working fine now.
