    Hi RussellJ,

     

    Still the same. No NETGEAR adapter supports Miracast except the PTV3000.

    Thank, James.

I’m having a similar issue… basically no option to connect to a wireless display

My Specs

 

Window 10 Pro

A6210  Driver 5.1.22.0

 

But the strange thing is that if I enable my on-board wifi I am able to choose to connect to a wireless display.

 

I have a laptop with the with builtin network wifi

Dell Wireless 1705 802.11b/g/n 2.4GHZ

 

This card works fine to connect to the display but since I’m in an apartment complex the video transmission gets allot of interference.  So I decided to purchase the following

 

Netgear A6210 USB wireless adapter 2.4/5GHz dual band  (Transmitter)

ScreenBeamMini2  WiFi certified Miracast 2.4 or 5GHz wifi (Receiver)

 

So basically I was attempting to broadcast and receive on the 5GHz spectrum so I wouldn’t get any interference.  But I can’t get the Netgear A6210 to transmit to the display.  Windows 10 doesn’t see that it has the capability??

 

So is there an update for the A6210 Dual Band USB 3.0 adaptor that will allow for wireless display ability?  Or what netgear 5GHz network adaptor do I need to purchase?
