We keep telling folks if it has a power brick, and plugs into the wall, it should use an Ethernet port and plug into the wall. -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Dennis Xu Sent: Monday, September 08, 2014 3:07 PM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Apple TV BLE discovery when connected via wired It sounds great. But I still have concerns about the interference. We have been educating people not to cause interference to campus WiFi network and then encouraging people to use Bluetooth for ATV just sounds like self-contradicting to me. Is it just me having this concern? --- Dennis Xu Analyst 3, Network Infrastructure Computing and Communications Services(CCS) University of Guelph 519-824-4120 Ext 56217 d...@uoguelph.ca www.uoguelph.ca/ccs ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeffry Legge" <jgle...@radford.edu> To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Sent: Monday, September 8, 2014 3:09:38 PM Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Apple TV BLE discovery when connected via wired We are using Bluetooth to discover apple tvs that are on a wired connection..

A few of the network guys weren’t too happy about the inability to disable the Apple Sleep Proxy Service. It can cause a little bit of bonjour hell, as they called it, if bonjour is enabled on the LAN. The BT discovery we found was a bit unreliable. It would work most of the time, but when testing we found there are times that we couldn’t get an iPad to find the AppleTV till it was rebooted and we were concerned with distance. IMO it works better for conference rooms and possibly smaller classrooms if you don’t mind it broadcasting. We are still using our Mirror App though. Yosemite still doesn’t have support for BT discovery yet, though I’d assume that is coming. I wonder if AirServer/Reflector will add it at some point too. I’ve been watching the iOS betas for the new features coming that will utilize WiFi-direct. Jason > On Sep 8, 2014, at 1:38 PM, Michael Dickson <mdick...@nic.umass.edu> wrote: > > Thanks Lee.
