FAQs
1. Can I display different content on the TV while I’m using my laptop?
Yes. To display different content, change the screen display setting on your
computer to extend mode.
2. Can I close the laptop lid and still use Wireless Display?
Closing the laptop lid might put the system to sleep or turn it off and, as a result,
close the connection. To prevent this from happening, from Windows select
Start > Search, type Closing lid in the search field, and change the settings to
do nothing.
3. Why can’t I play some DVD and Blu-ray discs?
Many discs have copy protection mechanisms that prevent playback on Intel
Wireless Display before software version v2.1.0.0. However, personal content
you have burned to a disc will play.
4. Can I mute my laptop and still watch videos with sound?
Yes. Even if your laptop has sound muted, the sound for the media you are
playing will play on your TV.
5. 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 using Intel WiDi
software on your PC, and click Properties.
6. What should I do if I get a Windows Firewall security alert?
From Windows, select Start > Search and in the search field type Allow a
program through a Windows Firewall. Add WiDiApp and Wireless PAN
DHCP Server to the list of allowed programs. Make sure both the private and
public check boxes are selected. If you are not using Windows Firewall, consult
your firewall user’s manual.
7. What should I do if the TV stops showing my laptop screen?
Use Intel Wireless Display to check the wireless connection and reconnect to
the Push2TV adapter if necessary. If the situation continues, try moving your
laptop closer to the Push2TV adapter or place it in a location with a clear line of
sight to the Push2TV adapter. Changing the channel of your WiFi router might
also help.
For more information, launch Intel Wireless Display and select Help.
8. How can I restore factory settings to the Push2TV?
The Reset button is on the bottom of the unit. Use a paper clip to press and hold
the Reset button for 10 seconds.

a. Use your computer and navigate to http://www.netgear.com/stream to check
for and download the latest firmware.

Push2TV unit for more than 5 seconds.

the Push2TV update page. If you are not automatically redirected, type
http://192.168.3.1/ into the browser address bar.

downloaded in step a and complete the installation.

supporting Miracast will be available in late 2012 or early 2013.
