Cast to tv does not work (youtube, mobile screen share etc.). AP305C

[invisible132]

Hi all,

I have an issue when “cast to tv” button on youtube is missing when connected on AP305C, while on AP122 everything works fine.

I’m not sure how mobile phone finds tv, but I guess broadcast packets is involved here and it’s not being forwarded correctly.

Does anyone has similar issue?

Hi again!

I’ve found a solution to this problem. Now I am able to see cast button in youtube.

Just disable “Broadcast and Multicast Handling” under SSID optional settings.

Sorry for a late reply. I was on vacation.

I’ve tried using default profile with no success. 

It is smart tv built in function. I’m using 2 different tv’s LG and Samsung brands. 

TV’s are connected by cable, spmartphone/laptop connected to 5ghz. All devices are on the same vlan and ping from laptop to tv works well.

One thing that I’ve noticed that AP power led is blinking white, but I can’t see anything wrong on status page.

I’ve compared it with my AP CLI config and the only big difference is that you’ve enabled a lot of advanced features on the radio…. OFDMA uplink/downlink, radio-balance, band-steering, 80Mhz channel.

Could you just try it with a clone of the default AP305c device profile and change only the absolute necessary parameters to see whether that will change anything.

Could you also explain the involved devices in more detail i.e has the smart tv build in function or is a chromcast connected.

Do the involved clients connect to the 5GHz or 2.4GHz radio of the AP.

Could you post a screenshot of the client view for both involved clients.

Yes. Actually I have connected AP302c in place of AP122. Same cable, same switch port, same network.
