Disconnect it from your network. Hard to serve ads if it can't contact the servers it is pulling them from.
Got a new TV a month ago. Fucked up and connected it to wireless, no idea what I was thinking. The only way to kill the connection (from the TV side) was a factory reset.
Windows is like that now. Once you enter an internet connection, you're screwed. No way out but a full reinstall.
Yup, working on setting up VLANs so I can keep the stuff I like (DLNA from the NAS) without the stuff I don't (ads).
