Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works great! Connected to projector with HDMI, installed wifi display helper on a Nexus 7 from the play store, had it connected in seconds. Full screen mirroring from the device to the projector with sound. With the external keyboard makes using the Nexus really nice on a big screen. Also connected a Dell XPS 14. Had to purchase a Dell Intel wireless nic and ditch the Killer brand nic. Removed the intel nic video driver in the device management, left the nvidia alone, had windows update install the intel video, downloaded widi updater from Intel support site, ran it, it updated a couple programs and installed a widi program that opens and you see the adapter you purchases and have connected to your projector, type in a password it gives you and your connected. I was not able to use an HDMI to VGA adapter inline with this adapter so I could make this work on an older projector that didnt' have HDMI but I am still trying other things.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding on Surface Pro! Piloting these to use in a school setting. The video quality from a surface pro is amazing. Noticeably better then Chromecast, Epson Wireless, Apple TV Etc. Testing using a Surface Pro. I was unable to get it to work with a Asus Vivotab but did not spend too much time troubleshooting (we're ditching all of our Vivotabs).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from WiDi/Miracast This unit and it's two sister units will replace our overhead projectors in conference rooms. The ability for any user to cast to the 70" screens sans wires makes the company better and presentations better. The ROI for this is amazing.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Review of Miracast Very difficult to use. Spent a great deal of time setting it up and still did not work.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Bad connectivity The concept of this Bluetooth device is exactly what I needed, however it does not function with the consistency I need for it to be adequately functional. The problem is in the connection which continuously drops out forcing a complete reconnection process each time I try to use it. If I try to stream any presentation or video from any computer to the display TV, the C2G drops the connection every 10 minutes, making it difficult to follow a complete video. Very disappointing.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Sometimes works. My laptop "sees" it but cant connect to it.?? Android phone connects but sometimes audio/video is choppy sometimes OK. devices are 20 feet or less apart. Wish I would have just got a 20 ft HDMI cable.

For use with an HDMI capable projector do I connect it to the projector and connect the projector to the lan via ethernet, and project from a laptop, without a cable between the two?

Asked by: Anonymous
You would plug an HDMI cable from the Wireless Audio/Video receiver to the projector. You would then utilize a device that has WiDi to connect to the Wireless Audio/Video receiver via a pear to pear wireless connection

Hi, what is the difference between the C2G Miracast Wireless Adapter and the Miracast Wireless Presentation Solution. Looking for a stable device for laptops being used in conference rooms. Mostly reliability and ease of connection. Thanks Bob

Asked by: Bob
The Miracast Wireless Adapter only comes with the Miracast unit and the USB power cable. The Miracast Wireless Presentation Solution comes the 2 components mentioned above with an HDMI cable and a USB to AC adapter.

Does your Miracast product display all screens on a smartphone or tablet? Not just video. Could I use Miracast to display my iPhone 5 screens (to a largee display) and instruct someone how to use the iPhone features?

Asked by: Anonymous
The Miracast will display an identical copy of what is on your source device. Unfortunately Miracast is not compatible with the IPhone 5.
