TVs have come a long way from being old and clunky CRT boxes. Modern-day smart TVs have full-blown operating systems that allow users to enjoy them both as standard cable TVs and streaming devices that can pull from any streaming service you want.
That said, they aren’t always perfect and random bugs and glitches keep happening from time to time. In this article, we’re talking about Samsung TV error code 107, its causes, and what you can do to fix the problem.

How to fix this?
Here are six fixes you can try out.
Cold boot your TV
Cold booting your TV is the equivalent of restarting your PC. It’s also different from simply turning your TV off and on again.
There are two ways you can cold boot your TV:
- Using the remote: press and hold down the power button on your remote until the TV turns off and then back on again. This should take about five seconds.
- By unplugging the TV: unplug the TV from the wall and leave it unplugged for about 30 seconds before you plug the TV back in again.
Check internet connection
Now’s also a good time to check whether or not you have an active internet connection. Check to make sure that your WiFi is active and that your router is close enough for the TV to get a signal. Restarting your router can help get rid of a bunch of seemingly random internet and connectivity issues that may be hindering your connection to servers.

Step 2: Go to the Settings (gear icon) and click on Enter.
Step 3: Go to General and select the Network option.

This will reset your network settings to their default states. You can now add your WiFi network again ensuring that you use the right credentials and the error should go away.

Step 1: Press the Menu button on your remote.
Step 2: Select Support, followed by Software Updates.
Step 3: Press the Enter button on the remote.
Reset the Smart HUB
Connections errors can also happen because of misconfigured settings in the Samsung Smart Hub. Here’s how to reset them.
Step 1: Click the Settings button on the TV remote.
Step 2: Scroll down and select the Support option.
Step 3: Select Self Diagnosis.
Step 4: Click Reset Smart Hub.
Step 5: Enter your pin and then click OK.
Allow the TV to reboot and then follow the instructions for the setup. This should solve the error.
