Miracast Issue For Laptop

Hello Everyone,

 

I’m working with a Meraki ecosystem, specifically using the MR57 model. We typically project our laptop screens onto a Samsung TV using the Windows + K shortcut. This works most of the time, but it’s not always stable.

 

Occasionally, the connection fails. I’ve already whitelisted the TV in Meraki Air Marshal, Microsoft TAC was unable to assist.

Has anyone encountered or resolved this issue before?

Is the TV Ethernet or Wireless connected?  Is the laptop Ethernet or wireless connected?

 

Is "Deny Local LAN" turned off?

Thank you for your response!

The TV can connect via both Wi-Fi and LAN. However, we are using Wi-Fi for Miracast services, so we can consider it connected over Wi-Fi.

During Miracast usage, both the laptop and TV are connected via Wi-Fi, though they might be on different SSIDs.

The "Deny Local LAN" option is enabled because I want to block the guest SSID from accessing our internal LAN.

The setup flow is: AP → Switch → MX.

When I project the laptop screen onto the TV, a virtual Wi-Fi Direct adapter is created with an IP range of 192.168.xx.

Out of 10 attempts, the same setup works about 7 times, but it operates in an ad hoc manner.
