Cast to device not working

[Kristjanj]

I have paroblem with windows 10 cast to device feature. It used to work just fine, but it stopped working. I was casting from my Dell laptop to my Sony bravia KD-55XD8005. I have another tv in my bedroom and casting work just fine on that tv. So I think the problem is with Sony bravia. Any suggestions.

In WMP select Stream> More Streaming Options can you see the Sony? Try Blocking all devices and then enable all devices

Hmmm Seems like the Sony isn't seeing the network. I have a similar set up but I don't stream to device, I use the TV to access the server to play video. Some times when using wifi it was necessary to turn the TV off at the mains and back on after a minute or so to reconnect. I have since used a wired connection and no longer get this issue
