Venue 11 Pro 7130 WiDi connection issues.....

I have a new Venue 11 Pro (7130) Intel core i5 -4210Y, 128 GB SSD 4GB RAM and tried to connect via WiDi to my TV that has a NETGEAR Push2TV (PTV3000) connected and I was not able to figure out how to make this work.

Firstly the Push2TV was in ready mode with the connection code on the tv screen.....next I navigated in the Venue 11 to the connect wireless display screen and when this was selected it started searching for devices but couldnot find the Push2TV device.

Is there something that I'm missing?

One reason for buying the Venue 11 was that it supports WiDi (Near Field Communication) or so I thought it did?

I noticed it didn't work until I installed the Bluetooth drivers off of dells site... not sure what it has to do with WiDi/Miracast, but I tried it with 2 of them and installed everything but the Bluetooth driver and they wouldn't connect. Installed the Bluetooth driver and it worked.

I have had no problems with the 7130 and Miracast.  Make sure you've updated the firmware on your PTV3000 - there are probably at least a few revisions posted that are newer than what it shipped with.   These fix all sorts of issues.

Thanks for the advice.....WiDi now working....had to update the PTV3000 firmware it was really old version of firmware.

Only issue is with choppy audio....any suggestions?

Hello, I don't achieve to make my PTV3000 work with the Pro 11 7130. I have updated the PTV3000 today at the version 2.4.26 and my Pro 11 has the A09 Bios. What does I need to do to make it work ? The Pro 11 sees the PTV3000, try to connect but failed to connect to it. Thanks for your help (and sorry for my poor English)

I have also tried to install the last Intel Widi package but it seems the Venue Pro 11 doesn't support Widi, only Miracast. I only want Miracast works... I have installed all the drivers for network on the Dell support but still doesn't work, can't connect to the PTV3000.
