    WiFi Direct/Miracast causing wireless interference?


    Good morning,I work for a school district and we are encountering an issue where it appears that Wi-Fi Direct or Miracast is causing interference with our Wireless Access Points, which is causing network performance issues. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this and/or knows how to get around it.Our teachers each have a Miracast-capable laptop, which they can use to wirelessly connect to a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter plugged into the television in their classroom. We also have one-to-one Chromebooks, so each class may have up to 25-30 students on Chromebooks connected to the wi

    Enable PIN entry for Miracast wireless mirroring via WiFi Direct

    I am looking for possible solution to enable PIN entry upon every Miracast connection between PC to Miracast Receivers.

    Based on Miracast Mirroring protocol, PIN authentication is only possible if connecting Miracast over MS-MICE. For Miracast over WiFi Direct, the PIN entry will only occur during the first connection, and Windows will cache its PIN from subsequent connection onwards until the laptop or Miracast receiver recycle its power.

    If I want to enable PIN entry on Miracast via WiFi Direct, does Microsoft has any hidden Registry configuration to allow users to enter PIN on every Miracast session?
    Is there any possible solution to work around this Microsoft behaviour in not caching the PIN?

    Any suggestion will be appreciated.

    My laptop is running on latest Windows 10 Pro 21H1 version Build 19043.1023.

    Does Miracast (or Wifi-Direct) require WPS?

    Win10 Home Version 21H2 (OS Build 19044.2130) (appreciate all replies)

    Checking security issues of using Miracast from PC to TV. It appears Miracast is based on Wifi-Direct technology and requires the use of WPS (Wifi-Protection-Setup)
    *1-> Or did I miss something in that summation?

    WPS's low digit PIN easier to hack, has some dismal reviews on the web. I do see where some Miracast enabled TVs offer safety facets like individual device lock out, temporary connections, some also with temporary pins that somewhat limit vulnerabilities.
    *2-> So can one implement Miracast without using WPS, or do we just have to examine each device's implementation on this?

    *3-> (How to totally Disable WPS) I've always have disabled WPS on my Router and other IOT devices. But since Miracast and Wifi-Direct can form an Ad-Hoc Peer to Peer, do you need to (or how to) disable WPS in a Windows laptop also?

    WiFi Direct/Miracast causing wireless interference?

    How do I enable DHCP (Miracast) on my Windows 10 PC with LAN?

    Basic question: your desktop does have a WiFi adapter doesn't it? It needs to have a WiFi adapter that supports WiFi Direct.


    No. Miracast does not connect over the LAN, it's wireless only, using WiFi Direct.
