How To Connect Wi-Fi Miracast Connection

The Wi-Fi Miracast mode allows compatible Miracast devices to connect directly to ScreenBeam, even when connected to an infrastructure wireless network. Miracast is commonly available on Windows 11/10 and Android devices. Users can enjoy wireless display and Internet access if the client device is already connected to Wi-Fi.
Note: The ScreenBeam receiver must be installed in the same room near the user devices for discovery to reach.

To Connect via Miracast

• On a Windows device, hit the Windows key and K at the same time
• Each Android device may call their Miracast a unique name like All Share Cast, Screen Cast, Smart Share, etc.
• Select the receiver name for the receiver you wish to connect to (name is on Ready to connect screen)

Note: Some Android devices do not support PIN and will fail to connect. Refer to the ScreenBeam Deployment Guide on our support site for instructions on how to configure ScreenBeam and disable PIN enforcement.

Local Wi-Fi Connection
The ScreenBeam Wi-Fi mode is similar to Miracast but uses the ScreenBeam device as a local Wi-Fi hotspot or network, providing a simple way for client devices to connect and project. In this mode, users need to connect their client devices to the ScreenBeam Wi-Fi network.

Configuring and Managing your new receiver is an important part of getting the most out of ScreenBeam. There are a number of security settings, network settings and more that allow you to configure and optimize ScreenBeam for your specific needs.
