Step-by-Step Fix
1
Verify WiFi Network
Ensure both phone and TV are on the exact same SSID (and band).

Restart Both Devices
Restarting the phone and TV often fixes discovery issues.

Ensure the feature is turned ON in the TV settings.
When to See a Technician
Check your router settings for "AP Isolation" or "Guest Network" which can prevent devices from seeing each other.
