How To Fix Smartcast Not Working Error Code 2101_1 And 2903_1?


Fix 1: Power Cycle The Vizio TV

  • Power off your Vizio smart tv.

Fix 2: Check DHCP Settings

If in case your network DHCP is not enabled properly then you may also face this error.

If you don’t know then DHCP assigns a unique IP address to every device connected to that network.

So follow the steps given below to update or configure your DHCP settings.

  • Now open your router’s URL, and log in to your account with the right credentials.
  • Once you logged in to your router dashboard, visit settings.
  • Then visit the network settings, and go to the DHCP section. If the DHCP section is not under the network settings then visit advanced settings.
  • Now check if the DHCP is enabled or not. If not then enable it.
  • If in case DHCP is already enabled, then disable it and then re-enable it.
  • Then save the settings, and quit from there.
  • Now go to your Vizio Smartcast tv and check if you still have the error or not.

Fix 3: Check If You Are Using The Latest version of Vizio Software

  • Visit your Tv Home screen.
  • Then go to Settings.
  • Then visit Systems.
  • Then choose System Updates.
  • Now check if there’s any Pending update available for tv software. If yes then consider installing the pending update and then check for the error.

Fix 4: Factory Reset Your Vizio tv

  • Tap the Menu button from your smart cast remote.
  • Then visit the System option.
  • Then visit the system and admin.
  • Now choose Reset SmartCast tv.
  • Now check if the error has been gone or not.

Fix 5: MayBe Vizio SmartCast is Down
