Hi gang. New to this forum.
I am trying to learn how to play the guitar. I've purchased a number of online courses, but watching them on an iphone is inconvenient for a number of (obvious?) reasons. I would like to put them up on my TV.
After having talked to a number of “experts†I continue to get conflicting and erroneous information on how to do this.
I bought an Apple TV HD streaming box as, instructed, and was told this was all I needed to screen mirror or Air Play the videos. That did not work. Then I was told I would need a router as well. Some tell me that should do the trick and others tell me I will also need to subscribe for Wi-Fi in order to utilize the router for mirroring or Air Play. Others tell me two iphones will do the job, one acting as a hotspot and the other providing the mirroring or Air Play function. Without requiring Wi-Fi.
I don't want to subscribe to Wi-Fi. This is all looking to get too expensive. The Apple TV HD streaming box cost $180.
To complicate matters someone also suggested buying a Jet Pack (not the flying kind)?!?!! How does that work? Still requires Wi-Fi?
There are a million routers out there. Which would suit my needs for mirroring/Air Play only? And which would be best if I take the plunge and subscribe to Wi- Fi? Where can I find the cheapest Wi-Fi plan? So many questions.
This is all getting complicated, confusing, and frustrating. Maybe I should chuck this whole idea and just get a laptop computer to watch the guitar lessons on. That would be fine by me.
