THE DETAIL:
Our computers connect using Miracast, a technology utilising Wi-Fi Direct. It enables the two devices to connect directly, without need for a Wi-Fi access point, i.e., no internet connection. So less cables, less clutter - only a laptop power cable was used.

SET UP PROCESS 👇
✅ 1. Use Your Laptop As A Second Monitor Overview 🕖 0:00
✅ 2. Check Your PC / Laptop Both Support Miracast 🕖 1:27
Both devices must support Miracast so you can use your laptop as a second monitor. The video assumes both devices support Miracast. Most modern devices should support Miracast. Check this by going to notifications tray, click 'connect' from menu. If not supported, will say 'Your PC or mobile device doesn't support Miracast, so it can't project wirelessly'. I believe Microsoft supported Miracast from Windows 8.1.
✅ 3. Ensure Wireless Display Feature Is Installed 🕖 2:57
In search bar, type 'apps'. Select apps & features. Select 'optional features' top of screen. In optional features page, type 'wireless' in search bar. Need to install wireless feature? - click 'add a feature button'. When 'add an optional feature' window opens, type 'wireless' in search box. When 'wireless display' appears, tick box to select & click install. An internet connection is needed to install this feature. Installation begins.
✅ 4. Set Up Projection Settings 🕖 5:23
Type 'projection' in search bar & select 'projection settings'. If options greyed out, then likely wireless display feature isn't installed. The 'projecting to this PC' window should show various options. Select one - 'Some Windows and Android devices can project to this PC when you allow them' - available everywhere on secure networks, available everywhere, always off (recommended); 'ask to project to this PC' - every time a connection is requested, first time only, 'require a pin for pairing' - never, first time, always; 'this PC can only be discovered for projection when it's plugged into a power source' - on or off.
✅ 5. Connect Your Laptop As A Second Monitor 🕖 7:13
Go to notifications tray. Select 'connect' from menu. 'CONNECT - searching for wireless display & audio devices' opens. Laptop name should appear - sometimes takes several seconds. If happy, select laptop name. Will then say 'connecting, enter the pin of your device'. A box will appear on laptop asking to connect - 'Connect... is attempting to project'. Set connection frequency. Another screen opens on laptop giving you a pin. To proceed, enter pin on projecting device. Then click 'connect'. "Your laptop ... is ready for you to connect wirelessly' appears. If connection is successful, laptop screen should look like an extended version of your projecting PC. You can set device up for gaming, working or watching videos - click cog on 'connected to your device' bar. Once connected you can move apps between displays, assuming set up for extended displays - ours is. You can also duplicate displays, show only on monitor 1 / 2. Want to stop using your laptop as a second monitor wirelessly? Click "disconnect". Your laptop & other computer will return to two separate PC's.
