Airplay not working with Linksys e4200, when attempting to mirror IPAD2 to AppleTV 2, causes all wireless connections to bounce.

It's a QOS setting.

Steps:

1. 1. Login to your router
2. 2. Click on Application and Gaming
3. 3. Click on QOS
4. 4. Disable WMM Support
5. 5. Done

Enjoy!

Mirroring working great now on my AppleTV!

Disabling WMM (QOS) is not a solution, because it will disable wireless N too.

Yeah, I discovered that the hard way (disabling WMM disables wireless N). Is that a bug in the firmware? Surely it's not supposed to work that way.

That's definitely bug and all we are waiting for Cisco to fix it.

Btw, I've googled and found this problem is very common and happens not only to Cisco routers. Airplay just kills routers 🙂

Hey Everyone!!! BINGO!

I just got off the phone with Linksys tier 2 tech support and I finally have a work around that is different from what everyone else has been doing and ostensibly we don't have to sacrifice anything.

Applications & Gaming -> QoS -> WMM -> ENABLE IT

Administration -> Management -> CTF -> DISABLE IT

I'm on 1.0.04 version of the firmware and everything works like a charm!!!!!

Yahoo!!! Thank you Julie from Cisco.

Nice to hear you have fixed it.

But unfortunately this trick won't work with E4200v2, it doesn't have CTF at all.

I have disabled all possible features (SIP, traffic management, etc.), but router keeps rebooting every time I try to use AirPlay.

That's a shame for Cisco, wondering if they ever going to fix this stupid bug.

Thanks canadamg, this worked for me too. Finally can use Airplay again!

Thanks so much canadamg. This worked for the Linksys E3200.

This worked for my Linksys E3200. Thanks!

Thanks canadamg, your solution was the only one that worked for me! Besides being the simplest one...

Obs: I have a Linksys E3200.

So pleased I took the time to research this. I didn't realize how much I missed airplay/mirroring functionality. It's always tough to downgrade. Canadamg solution worked for my E3200!

Canadamg, you're a goddess...worked without issue. Only problem I had was that I couldn't download CiscoConnect to my MBP...doesn't support latest OS. Thankfully I have a Lenovo work laptop and disabling the CTF worked like a charm! Thanks for sharing...

This fix worked for me on the EA4500 router as well.

1. Login to your router. The default PW is admin.

2. Click on Media Prioritization.

3. Click on Settings.

4. Turn off WMM Support.

5. Click OK.

This solution workes for me. Now airplay works without any problems.
