Troubleshooting Tips : Cast Pantaya on TV
If you have problems casting your Pantaya app to your TV or if you are unable to find the cast button then the first thing you need to do is check if both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
Next, if it’s still not working, check if your devices OS and the software version of the app. If it’s not the latest version proceed to update the software and try again.
If your device is connected to a VPN then you will not be able to cast to your TV. Disconnect the VPN and try using the regular Wi-Fi network.
If the issue persists, attempt restarting the Wi-Fi router, Pantaya app and TV before trying again.
Sometimes, there may be multiple devices connected to the router and this can drop the network speed drastically which can also prevent you from casting from the Pantaya app to a TV. Remove or disconnect a few devices before trying again.
