Casting from WiFi to Apple TV on LAN

[dkdeni]

Hi

My home WiFi is built with Aerohive AP250's configured by CLI, I don't have a ClouidIQ controller.

Everything works well, except when when I try to cast content from my iPhone to my Apple TV.
The Apple TV is connected to wired network, in the same VLAN and IP range as my WiFi clients

I can see my Apple TV devices in the list of available cast receivers, but the content never gets there.
If I remove the cable from the Apple TV and connect it to WiFi, it works.

Am I missing a CLI config command to get this working?

What I meant is that if the Apple TV is connected via the cable and at the same time it's communicating via wifi to the same network, it's create a loop which will bring down the network. This may be what is happening. Please make sure that the device is not, in any way shape or form, communicating via wireless when connected via the Ethernet port. 

This may not be the issue so just a suggestion.

Hi @Christoph_S 

Thank you for the link to the Free CloudIQ instance, I have been looking for something like that but unable to find it. At least that will give me the interface I am used to from work.


I am not sure what you mean by a loop? and it is not the AP I disconnect, it is the Apple TV.
When the Apple TV is connected by WiFI, casting works.
Normally the Apple TV is connected by cable to my switch, not the extra Eth port on the AP.

Hello @dkdeni,

Firstly I would suggest you create a freemium cloud account and onboard the device. Makes it much easier to configure and manage.

Looks like you may be creating a loop somehow. Once the AP is disconnected the loop is broken.
