Makes connecting external monitors more convenient

I have a couple of portable monitors that I often use at home as an external monitor for my laptop and also when I teach my kids about school. Connecting the cable from my laptop to the monitor is often inconvenient and sometimes dangerous. So I decided to try this wireless display dongle. It suits my needs perfectly. The package is small, just the user manual, HDMI adapter and micro USB cable for power and network connection. I didn't bother to read the user manual, after plugging it into the monitor, turn it on and then read what's on the screen. I first tried connecting directly to the dongle via Wi-Fi, and then I was able to access the web interface using the IP address shown on the screen to set up the wireless connection. After connecting the dongle to my home network, I was able to view the broadcast from various devices over Wi-Fi. The key is automatically detected on the network by devices that support it. Connecting my Windows computers often works but is a little stuttery at times, possibly due to too many wireless devices around the house. But surprisingly, our smartphones and iPads stream and stream just fine. For non-technical users, I recommend reading the user manual carefully. This device works great when properly configured. Overall I have nothing to complain about with this product. For me an additional convenience when connecting external monitors. If you are looking for a wireless display solution, this product is an excellent solution when set up properly.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Negative impression
