Samsung TV Error Code 110 — What It Means & How to Fix It

What Does This Error Mean?

Error 110 on a Samsung TV means the TV cannot reach the internet or Samsung's content servers. This is a connectivity error — your TV hardware is fine. Most users fix it by restarting the TV and router.

Affected Models

Samsung QLED TVs (2017+)
Samsung The Frame series
Samsung Neo QLED series
Samsung Crystal UHD series
Samsung Tizen Smart TVs (2015+)

Common Causes

Home internet connection is down or temporarily unavailable
Router has lost its connection to your Internet Service Provider (ISP)
TV's network settings are incorrectly configured after a firmware update
DNS server issue preventing the TV from resolving Samsung's server addresses
MAC address filtering on your router is blocking the TV

How to Fix It

Power off your Samsung TV completely using the button on the TV itself — not just the remote. Unplug it from the wall, wait 60 seconds, then plug it back in and power it on.

This forces a full restart and clears any corrupted network state stored in the TV's memory.
Restart your home router. Unplug the router's power cable, wait 30 seconds, then plug it back in. Wait 2-3 minutes for it to fully reconnect before testing your TV.

Error 110 is often caused by the router rather than the TV itself.
On your TV, navigate to Settings > General > Network > Reset Network. This clears any misconfigured network settings on the TV. After resetting, reconnect to your Wi-Fi and enter your password again.

Network resets often fix error 110 that persists after a firmware update changes network settings.
Try changing the DNS server your TV uses. Go to Settings > General > Network > Network Status > IP Settings. Set DNS to Manual and enter 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS server).

Samsung's default DNS server can sometimes become unreachable, causing error 110 even when your internet is fine.
If you are using Wi-Fi, try connecting your TV directly to the router with an Ethernet cable. If error 110 disappears, the problem is with your Wi-Fi signal rather than your internet connection.

A weak Wi-Fi signal can cause intermittent connection errors that look identical to a full outage.

When to Call a Professional

Error 110 is a software and network issue that almost never requires professional repair. If you have checked your internet, restarted all devices, and reset your TV's network settings with no improvement, call your ISP — the problem may be on their end. Samsung TV hardware repairs are not needed for this error.

Frequently Asked Questions

My internet works on my phone but the Samsung TV shows error 110 — why?

Your phone and TV may be connecting differently. Phones often reconnect faster and switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data automatically. Try restarting just the TV — it may have lost its connection while your phone stayed connected.

Error 110 appeared after a Samsung TV update — what happened?

Firmware updates sometimes reset network configuration settings. Go to Settings > General > Network > Reset Network to clear the old settings. Reconnect to your Wi-Fi and the error should be gone.

Does error 110 mean Samsung servers are down?

It can mean that, but it is more often a home network issue. Check if other smart features on your TV work — if nothing works, your internet is the most likely cause. If only certain apps fail, Samsung or that app's servers may be temporarily down.
