  1. Once that is done you can reconnect to your own router on your PC or phone and you will be able to connect to the GWAVRD anytime it is turned on using Miracast or Airplay. In that way, your devices are able to access Internet and do the casting at the same time. Please wait till you see that the device is connected to your router first before casting using the connection status in the below image.

  1. Depending on your device, please follow the steps below: Windows 10+ – Hold down Windows key + P or go to Settings > Display and choose “Connect to a wireless display”. The GWAVRD will show up as IOGEARCast-xxxxxx, click on it and you will be able to cast your content to your display either in mirror mode or extend mode depending on how you set this up in your display settings.
    • macOS Mojave or later – Go to Systems Preference > Displays > AirPlay Display and click on “Off” and there will be a drop-down menu, select the IOGEARCast device and your screen will automatically mirror to your display. If you do not want to mirror, uncheck the box for “Show Mirroring Options” in the menu bar. You will now be able to extend your display.
    • Android devices – Depending on your device you will swipe up or down across the screen to access the screen sharing app. Click on it and IOGEARCast device will appear. Click on the device and your TV will immediately mirror what is on your phone. For devices that do not support Smart View (Samsung®) or Screen Mirroring (iPhone), please consult your phone’s casting app. For example, LG uses Miracast™ (found in Settings>Networks>Share and Connect>Miracast). By default the Miracast feature is turned off.
    • iPhone – Depending on the model of your iPhone either swipe up or swipe down to get to the Screen Mirroring app. Select Screen Mirroring. From this screen choose the device you want to cast to and the screen on your iPhone will be mirrored to your big display screen.
  2. This is a 1 to 1 device and any new connections will need the connected device to be disconnected first before another device can be connected to the GWAVRD.
    *Please note that you only have to connect to your router using  the browser only once. You will not be able to connect to the GWAVRD if you are using any VPN software, please make sure your VPN is disconnected prior to connecting to the GWAVRD.
