Wireless display app not working

Deathstomper79 · Mar 16, 2019

I tried to search first before posting.

Is anyone else having an issue with the wireless display app. I have it loaded but when I follow the directions and hit (windows key +P) my xbox is not listed. Is there a step by step to this; or am I doing it all wrong? Could it still just be broken.

I agree that this does match what I have seen.

What I cannot fathom is why the dev team did not anticipate a very common use case:

Xbox One connected to wired LAN - because it is not portable and I will always use a wired connection when it is available...right?

Portable Device (phone, tablet, laptop) connected to WIFi- because it is portable and I do not want the hassle of a cable... right?

Yet this scenario appears to be the one the dev team overlooked...right?

same here. I have been working at this all day. Customer support didn't even know what I was talking about until I told him to look it up. He then said oh yeah I see that multiple people are having the issue. Then he just said look in the forums for the
answer. I couldn't believe he said that to me. Well I feel we have a strong community here so, I am hoping that the issue can be resolved.

Yep. Same issue here. Been trying to make it work all day as well. Even updated the hell out of Windows 10, still no win. Was really looking forward to this.

I had a similar problem, I solved it by changing how my pc was connected to the network.

If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using
wifi if works.
If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using
lan the xbox does not show on the pc.
If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using both
wifi and lan the pc can initiate a connection to the xbox, but the xbox is stuck on a screen saying the pc is about to project.

I'm not sure if the wireless display standard requires both devices to be connected to wifi or if this was just pure coincidence, and has more to with the ip-addresses and subnets used on different networks?

Streaming the opposite way around (form the xbox to the pc) works in all configurations.
