Hey Nikhil, your problem seems to be with the WiFi circuit of the TV.  But before that just try to reset your TV to factory setting. If it resolves your problem then good. You are not the only one facing this issue.

If resetting does not solve the issue then I suggest you call LG service and ask the guy to change the WiFi circuit.

There have been several threads about this issue, which may be a a fatal  flaw in LG Smart TVs. Here’s the rundown of solutions:

1. Unplug TV, wait 30 seconds and plug it back in. Go to Settings/Network and see if any WiFi networks are listed. Pick your home network and enter network password if necessary. If that doesn’t work.......

2. Go to Settings/General and select Time &Date - set it to manual. Turn TV off and back on. If you don’t get your WiFi back......

3 Go to Settings/General and select Quick Start - turn it off. Turn TV off and back on. If it’s still not working....

4. Purchase a ROKU for $40, it’s simple to set up and is simply better for making your TV able to stream effectively. 

Each of the solutions  1-3 above worked temporarily on my TV, but after 2 weeks of fussing around with the LG system, I went the ROKU route, and never looked back.

      55UB850T-TA model is still in WebOS version 1.4.0 (afro-ashley)
      By Ravichandran S
      My TV was bought in 2014 55UB850T-TA with WebOS TV version 1.4.0-2337 (afro-ashley). 
      I recently purchased the Disney hotstar subscription. But in the above version the LG content store does not show the Hotstar
      As per the news in this link we are eligible to upgrade to WebOS 2.0. But the automatic updates does not say it as WebOS 2.0 but still WebOS 1.4

      link hidden, please login to view Why this discrimination for old users of LG TV? How will I install new apps in this TV?
      Please help.

      LG WebOS TV Hogging my all my bandwidth
      By superleccy
      Hi there
      I've had my LG WebOS SmartTV for a couple of months, but in the past week or so I've noticed it's really started eating up all my home's Internet bandwidth, even when I'm just watching FreeSat TV and not running any apps.  It's connected to my router using wired ethernet, so it's not a WiFi problem.
      I can only assume that one the apps I've installed is suddenly decided to download a ton of data in the background.  But which one?
      The only solution I can think of is to install my apps one-by-one until my bandwidth issue improves.  And that's what I'll do.
      But I found this forum, and thought I'd ask you good people if any of you had had a similar experience.
      Here's the apps I've got installed:
      BritBox BBC iPlayer Spotify YouTube Amazon Prime Video NowTV AppleTV Thanks in advance for any tips

      Help - Video thumb images not appearing on webOS 2.2 over DLNA
      By nashwan
      I have the following setup:
       
      LG 55EF950V television which is running webOS 2.2.0-1317 (this should be the latest version of the OS).
       
      I have a number of video files on my Synology DiskStation DS413 NAS which I connect to with the TV over DLNA (on the TV this is Smart Share -> Devices -> (NAS))
       
      I can see all the video files and play them etc., however when viewing the list of files I dont see any thumb images even though I have a JPEG image for each file.  For example: "My Video.mkv" has a thumb call "My Video.jpg".  For collections I put a "cover.jpg" image in the directory (this doesnt work either on the LG TV).
       
      Has anyone else out there managed to get a webOS 2 TV to show video thumb nail images for videos over DLNA?
       
       
      BTW: this all works when I use a Samsung TV so I dont think it has anything to do with the way the Synology DiskStation DS413 NAS is setup.

      Possible fix for LG TV WiFi dropouts
      By td47
      For those who get frequent WiFi connection drop-outs, I picked this bit of useful info from another forum. Note that this may well apply to many other LG models than the C9, as they often use common WiFi internal cards/modules:
      "Network/Ethernet/Wi-Fi
      Problem: C9 [or other models] will lose the wireless connection and you have to reconnect daily (but wired is stable);
      Conditions: TV is connected to a 5GHz router;
      Cause:           (1) the router may be unstable on the 5GHz band [possibly too far from router]; (2) the router has the 5GHz band set on a higher channel - over 100;
      Resolution: (1) change the TV to the 2.4GHz band
                                (2) set the channel [in the ROUTER advanced WiFi settings]!! for the 5GHz band below 100 (ex. 40-50) - [channel 36 is often OK]."
