Q: Can't find Apple TV on my MacBook on the same Wifi.
I use public Wifi in my apartment which requires registration to use it.
My macbook and apple TV is registered to the system separately and they work well.
I can do web-surfing with my laptop and watch youtube with my apple TV.
However, my laptop can't find apple TV so I can't use airplay. Several months ago, I could see apple TV on my laptop so I used airplay but it suddenly dissappeared.
I suspect this is due to different IP address. The first two part of the IP is the same 169.231.xx.xxx but apple TV has a different IP in the last two part from my laptop.
Please help!
Apple TV (2nd generation)
