FAQs

1. Can I display different content on the TV while I’m using my laptop?

No. Intel Wireless Display only works in “clone displays” mode, so laptop and
TV screens are the same.

2. Can I close the laptop lid and still use Intel Wireless Display?

Closing the laptop lid may put the system to sleep or turn it off and, as a result,
close the connection. To change this, from Windows select Start > Search, type
Closing the lid in the search field, and change the settings to do nothing.

6. Why do text and graphics look blurry or fuzzy on the TV?

If you are using composite cables, you may find it difficult to view text and some
graphics. You should be able to view videos fairly well though. HD TVs is
recommended for the best viewing experience.

7. Which wireless routers is Intel Wireless Display compatible with?

If you are connecting to the 5 GHz network, Intel Wireless Display will not work.
Intel Wireless Display is compatible with any 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi Router. If your
router supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz, connect the laptop to the 2.4 GHz wireless
network.

8. How can I fix the delay in the cursor?

You cannot change the delay, but you can turn off the cursor on the TV and use
the laptop to navigate. To do this, connect to the adapter and click Properties.

9. What should I do if I get a Windows Firewall security alert?

From Windows select Start > Search and type in the search field Allow a
program through a Windows Firewall. Add WiDiApp and Wireless
PAN DHCP Server to the list of allowed programs. Make sure both private and
public checkboxes are selected. If you are not using Windows Firewall, consult
your firewall user’s manual.

10. What should I do if the TV stops showing my laptop screen?
