Googlecast capable devices not showing on WIFI

  • 1.  Googlecast capable devices not showing on WIFI

    Posted Sep 20, 2018 03:45 PM

     Currently running 3 AP-305s at a small non-profit.  We recently installed 7 googlecast enabled TVs.  Our default WIFI requires username and password.  So I created an additional WIFI on the same VLAN just for the displays with a long and complex password.  I enabled AirGroup in Aruba Central and selected Googlecast.

    Problem is all the TVs show up when a device is wired.  However, once I switch it to WIFI only a handful of TVs show as being available for casting.

    So my two questions are:

    1-Is it possible just to add the TVs on the regular employee WIFI without using a username?  I didn't see a way to add devices via MAC without requiring it for all.

    2-Is there an option I'm missing that is preventing all of the displays from being visible while on the regular employee WIFI?
