It's important to understand that the connection method depends on the TV model, laptop operating system, and even the firmware version. For example, older TVs Hyundai (before 2018) often not supported Miracast, but they work DLNA, and new models with Smart TV at the base Android TV or webOS offer advanced options. We will consider options for Windows 10/11, macOS and even Linux, as well as alternative solutions such as Google Cast or Steam Link for gamers.

If you've already tried connecting and encountered an error, don't rush to blame the technology. In 80% of cases, the problem lies in incorrect network settings, outdated software or a conflict of Wi-Fi standards (for example, the TV operates on a frequency 2.4 GHz, and the laptop is connected to 5 GHz).
