Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For your situation I think there is an easier way to get AirPlay. There was a new feature added in iOS 8 where your iOS device and Apple TV don't have to be on the same Wi-Fi network. As long as your iPad mini is running iOS 8, and your Apple TV is the newest 3rd generation, just follow the information outlined below to get AirPlay working between your devices.
Peer-to-peer AirPlay
With peer-to-peer AirPlay, your iOS device and Apple TV don't need to be on the same Wi-Fi network. If you have one of these products, you can use peer-to-peer AirPlay:
* iPhone 5 or later, iPad (3rd generation or later), iPad mini, or iPod touch (5th generation) using iOS 8 or later.
* Apple TV (3rd generation rev A, model A1469 or later) with Apple TV software 7.0 or later. Find out which Apple TV model you have.To use peer-to-peer AirPlay, your iOS device needs to have both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on.
Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Take care,
Alex H.

Dec 12, 2014 9:48 PM in response to alex_h1by jdiala,I forgot to mention that my Apple TV is a second gen version. I already know about the peer-to-peer capabilities of the third gen Apple TV. I'd prefer to get this working without having to resort to buying a new Apple TV.
