Chromecast connected to network but could not access the internet fix topic

This is a general fix for the common problem of Chromecast connecting to your wifi but not accessing the internet. On my connection the Chromecast would work sporadically and then drop. I have two Buffalo routers with one as a wireless bridge and both running DD-WRT. All I had to do was set the DNS to Google's servers, 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

Google apps on rooted chromecast and unroot question topic

Can newly released apps by Google for chromecasts be used and also updated in the Chromecast?

Can a Chromecast be unrooted? If not will it likely be possible in the future?

BBC iPlayer not working with chromecast...? topic

I'm in the UK. I have an imported Chromecast.

iPlayer is listed in the Google play store as being Chromecast compatible, but so far, when I open the app and navigate to a video, I don't see the option of playing it on Chromecast.

Anyone else suffer from this problem?

It is probably just too early for the BBC to have activated support at their end.... Let me know if it works for you?

Issues With Chromecast topic

Hi All, I've just joined this forum so apologies if this question has been asked before..:o

I recently bought the chromecast and so far loving it! But lately whenever I try and cast a tab from Google Chrome to play a video (not Youtube), the video plays fine, but previously using Win+T I could toggle between the tab (currently playing full screen video) to another browser and use it simultaneously. I now find this is impossible, and not sure what the issue is. If I toggle between tabs, the video playing also minimizes..:confused:

Any help would be greatly appreciated and not sure if I have managed to explain it properly!

Thanks in advance..:)

Avia Chromecast and Dropbox - Does the data go through my phone? topic

Howdy...

I'm hoping this is an easy question.... I have Avia on my phone, and can happily stream to my Chromecast. Obviously this involves data going from my phone through my network to the chromecast....

My question is this: If I use dropbox on Avia (rather than local video on my phone), does the data first go from Dropbox to my phone, and then from my phone to the chromecast? Or does the data go straight from Dropbox to the Chromecast?

Inquiry minds want to know. Thanks! :)

Best,

Ben

Build 15250 made my chromecast unusable. topic

So I got a chromecast over the vacations and it was working perfectly. Then yesterday it stopped while I was using it. I tried again to cast anything (youtube and Netflix) and it gives me an error message. I have tried factory reseting it twice, and nothing has changed. I have never rooted it or anything. Does anyone have any ideas?
