Such a simple way to turn your 65" TV into a HUGE monitor for your laptop. Connect the "j5create" to your A/V Receiver, then click on the simple command on your PC to immediately screencast what's on your laptop to a full blown 4K image on your TV. I love it, and the price is right.

If you're experiencing connection issues with the ScreenCast 4K Wireless Display Adapter, such as losing the connection when the device is more than a couple of feet away, there are several potential causes and troubleshooting steps you can try: Wireless signals can be affected by various factors, including physical obstructions, other electronic devices, and distance. Make sure there are no large objects or walls blocking the signal between the adapter and your device. Additionally, try moving the adapter and your device closer together to see if it improves the connection stability. Wi-Fi network congestion: If you're in an area with many Wi-Fi networks or other wireless devices, it could lead to congestion and interference. Try changing the Wi-Fi channel on your router or moving closer to the router to minimize interference. Try resetting both the adapter and your device. Unplug the adapter from the power source, wait for a few seconds, and then plug it back in. Restart your device and attempt to reconnect to the adapter. Contact Technical Support Team if none of the above steps resolve the issue. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps or determine if there's a defect with the device that requires a replacement. Their information can be found on j5create website under the "Support" tab and a specialist will be ready to assist you. Thank you.

Would not connect to my Win10 PC via any of the display options and their support is slow enough to delay you past the 15-day return date. Even with knowing the PC had full compatibility, Support was unable to get it to work.

Check if there are firmware or software updates available for the ScreenCast 4K Wireless Display Adapter. Installing the latest updates may resolve compatibility issues. Ensure that your PC and the adapter are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Incompatible or misconfigured networks can prevent successful connections. Verify that your PC's graphics drivers are up to date. Outdated or incompatible graphics drivers can affect screen mirroring and display functionality. To rule out PC-specific issues, try connecting the ScreenCast 4K Wireless Display Adapter to a different Windows 10 PC if available. This can help determine if the issue is specific to one device.

Ensure that the Wi-Fi signal strength is stable and strong where the ScreenCast 4K unit is connected. Weak or unstable Wi-Fi signals can lead to disconnections. High network congestion, especially during peak usage times, can lead to disconnections. Wireless interference from other electronic devices, routers, or neighboring Wi-Fi networks can disrupt the connection. Try changing the Wi-Fi channel on your router or moving other electronic devices away from the ScreenCast unit.

in theory this is an amazing device, in reality it leaves a lot to be desired. This worked for all of two hours on my brand new 2022 laptop but the connection kept needing to be restored. And now it does not connect at all. so bleh, save your money.

I purchased this to screencast my 5G phone to my TV. As a result, I found this device to be overpriced as compared to a 4K Roku Stick, and project just as good as a Roku.

Returned it. The quality of the 4k is awful. Screen is Glitchy and even at 30hz it is worthless. Tried from 2 different computers and 2 tvs. Just not as good as the Microsoft Adapter 4k. Wish that was still around. Just go with the 1080p one. Easy to set up but sucks.

When it comes to wireless display adapters, the quality of the streaming experience can be influenced by various factors, including compatibility, signal strength, and network conditions. Make sure your devices are connected to a strong and stable Wi-Fi network for optimal performance. Network congestion can affect the streaming quality. If multiple devices are using the same network or if your network is slow, it can impact the performance of wireless display adapters. If possible, try using the ScreenCast adapter in different physical locations to see if the performance improves. Sometimes, interference from other devices or physical obstacles can affect wireless performance.

The JVAW76 does not require internet access for local screen mirroring via Miracast, AirPlay, or Google Cast. However, your device must connect to the adapter's private Wi-Fi signal to establish a direct link.
For more information on setup, please contact j5create support agent through the official website (j5create.com). Thank you.

Ensure that the Wi-Fi network you're using is stable and has sufficient bandwidth. A congested or unstable network can contribute to poor performance. Interference from other electronic devices or Wi-Fi networks can impact signal quality. Verify that the devices you're trying to connect are compatible with the wireless display adapter. Some devices may have specific requirements or limitations.
