Cast router compatibility
If you're having an issue with your router, look for your router's make and model on the list below. The recommended workaround steps may resolve the issue for certain routers.
Routers not listed below may still be compatible with your Chromecast (1st gen, 2nd gen), Chromecast, Chromecast Ultra, Chromecast Audio and Google Cast devices without any modifications to your settings.
Note:
- To set up your Chromecast, make sure that you have access to a 2.4 GHz (for Chromecast (1st gen) devices) or 5 GHz network.
- Note: Support for Chromecast (1st gen) has ended, which means it no longer receives software or security updates, and Google doesn't provide technical support. Users might notice a degradation in performance.
If you reset or make changes to your router settings, it may have unintended consequences. If you have questions or concerns, please consult your router manufacturer or Internet Service Provider (ISP) before making any changes.
