Does the A6100 support Miracast?

I bought the A6100 because I was looking for a Wifi adapter that would let me use Samsung Dex over Wifi. But now that I've got it installed, my phone still can't see my PC. When I go to Settings -> System -> Projecting to this PC, I get the "This PC doesn't support Miracast" message.

I've gone through all of the debugging steps I found on the web - DxDiag shows that my display supports it, the powershell command shows that my Wifi network adapter is at a high enough version, etc. And yet, it's still not supported.

Is my problem simply that this adapter doesn't do Miracast? If so, is there a Netgear adapter that does?
