Peer-to-Peer Airplay on Apple TV 4
I just bought the Apple TV 4 mostly because I wanted the peer-to-peer airplay feature that I heard so much about on the newest revision of the Apple TV 3. I figured the Apple TV 4 would have the same features and more as that older model, but I can't seem to get the peer-to-peer airplay feature to work.
My preferred setup:
- Apple TV4 connected via Ethernet along with all of my other stationary devices to Wireless 8-Port Gigabit Router on network
- All mobile devices are on WiFi.
- All devices are on the same network and can use airplay just fine
A friend comes over with an iPhone, friend is not on my network but wants to stream some pictures to my Apple TV 4, but can't. Why Not!?!?!? Shouldn't a simple peer-to-peer (direct) wifi device (Apple TV 4) appear for my friend.
I tried disconnecting the Apple TV 4's Ethernet and took it completely off the network but nothing.
Is this a bug? will it be fixed? or should I try to find a Apple TV (3rd generation rev A, model A1469)
iPhone 6, Windows 7
