To stream from your phone to a TV without using Wi-Fi, you can use alternative methods such as a wired connection or Bluetooth. Here are a few options:
1. Use a USB Cable (HDMI Adapter):
– What you need: A USB-to-HDMI adapter (such as a Lightning-to-HDMI for iPhones or USB-C-to-HDMI for Android phones) and an HDMI cable.
– How to do it:
– Connect the USB side of the adapter to your phone.
– Connect the HDMI side to your TV.
– Switch your TV to the correct HDMI input.
– Your phone’s screen should now be mirrored on the TV.
2. Use a Bluetooth Connection:
– What you need: A TV with Bluetooth support (or a Bluetooth transmitter for TVs that don’t have Bluetooth).
– How to do it:
– Enable Bluetooth on both your phone and your TV.
– Pair the two devices.
– Once connected, you can stream content such as music, videos, or even mirror the screen to your TV, depending on the device compatibility.
3. Use a Chromecast with Ethernet (Wired Streaming):
– What you need: A Chromecast device with an Ethernet adapter.
– How to do it:
– Plug the Chromecast into your TV.
– Connect the Chromecast to the internet via Ethernet using the adapter.
– Use your phone to cast content directly to the TV (you may still need a data connection, but Wi-Fi isn’t necessary).
4. Use an MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) Cable:
– What you need: A phone that supports MHL and an MHL-compatible adapter or cable.
– How to do it:
– Connect the MHL adapter to your phone.
– Connect the other end of the cable to your TV’s HDMI port.
– Switch your TV input to the corresponding HDMI channel.
– Your phone screen should be mirrored on your TV.
These methods allow you to stream content from your phone to your TV without needing a Wi-Fi network.
