If you have an older Android device that still supports Miracast, you’ll need to go to the Settings menu, tap Display, and then tap Wireless display. Your TV will then display a splash screen asking you to connect a device. It may take up to 90 seconds for the adapter to finish booting up, but most are faster. Some adapters, like Microsoft’s, will require you to press a power button located on the physical dongle. Now that you’ve got a Miracast-capable device, power on your display, and switch the appropriate input if you’re using a streaming box or adapter.
Microsoft’s Wireless Display Adapter, connected to a television. These USB cables don’t actually transfer any data they’re there just to provide power to the adapter. Setup for any of these adapters is simple: Just plug the adapter into any open HDMI input port on your TV, projector, or monitor, then plug the small USB cable coming from the side of the device into the TV or an outlet. That’s not to say third-party adapters are bad, but troubleshooting is easier when you’re working with devices from the same company. For example, if you wanted to screen-beam from a Microsoft Surface Pro, you’d be best off with Microsoft’s adapter. We recommend picking a first-party adapter if you can find one.
