Google Chromecast Setup With Mobile Hotspot

We purchased the Skyroam for our trip to Europe. It has been a Godsend, we are in a mobile home and as we were driving we had a wifi hotspot with us so we could use our google maps to get us to our destination. We could watch movies, FaceTime our friends back In CA, keep up with our emails. Thank you thank you. Recommend to every traveller.

Chromecast devices are simply awesome.� If you are a streaming household, it is so much faster to look things up on your mobile device and press the cast button in the app and put it on the screen.� I can't tell you how many times I tell my wife, "Hey, check out this YouTube video." and then throw it up on the screen in a few seconds.� All the naysayers that thing looking up content on your phone is stupid and can't believe the phone is your remote control just flat out don't get it.� I have Android TV and a Roku television.� I like set top boxes.� But it is MUCH faster to get content on my tv using a mobile device and casting then using a remote control with a set top box.� Also, the voice integration to start up a movie on say Netflix or a song on Google Play Music with my voice via my Google Home is just awesome.� I have the Ultra hooked up to my Roku 4K TV even because we rent or buy Google Play Movies and you can watch them in 4K with the Chromecast Ultra but not with Roku.

got this bc I don't have WiFi. Took a while to figure out how to get it to cast onto the TV from my Android phone (Moto g5s plus) without a WiFi connection. First, turn off WiFi setting on the phone. After Chromecast plugged in, download Google Home app on the phone to connect. During setup, when ask to connect to WiFi, turn on the phone hotspot and connect to the phone hotspot instead of WiFi. After connection complete, can uninstall Google Home app and still cast via phone hotspot. Found helpful setup videos on YouTube

I use this in combination of the iOS phone and Google Home app. I have a PLEX server set up to cast movies. I also am able to cast Showtime via Google Home to watch Homeland on Chromecast Ultra. It is faster to process the movie and no lag or synchronization problems because of the ethernet cable. Recommended if you have Plex or just use Google Chrome to watch shows a lot. If you have a TV that is CEC compatible and enabled, you can launch Google Home from the iPhone and it will automatically start both Chromecast Ultra and your TV with just the app.

Purchased the D1 to improve the sound of Google Chromecast audio "puck" - connected them together with a Google short fiber cable. Well worth the price of the D1 because Spotify now sounds musical.

Using this to have a newer 4K Chromecast with Google TV and a DVD player so I can run just one HDMI cable to my ceiling-mounted projector. Works great! Switches automatically, and I like that I don't have to plug it into power or fuss with anything.

I purchased the Chromecast Ultra as a companion to my Google Home. The Chromecast is attached to my AV receiver which allows me to cast audio and video commands via voice command to my AV system. The device works exactly as promised so I am quite please with it. Only difficulty was in figuring out how to send the commands from the Google Home to it. That was resolved via a very quick support call with Google (Hey Google, play song title on Spotify on Chromecast).

I would purchase the NETGEAR Nighthawk® M6 Pro 5G WiFi 6E Mobile Hotspot Routerdevice again.

I purchased this mobile hotspot because the internet provider didt have reliable internet. My nighthawk is easy to use reliable. I now have consistent, reliable, download speed of 50mbps! Small and compact, easy to transport and use wherever I go

Adds flexibility to what you can do with a mobile setup.
