Windows 10 laptop unable to 'see' Roberts Stream 93i radio
I've been working out how to get my Roberts Stream 93i Internet Radio to play music from my two Win 10 Pro PCs.
The desktop, after enabling media streaming via the link in WMP, sees the Roberts radio and my Dell laptop. The radio sees the Desktop and happily plays music from that PC.
The laptop, after enabling media streaming via the link in WMP, does not see the Roberts radio, but it does see my desktop. Thus the radio doesn't see the laptop and is therefore unable to play music from the laptop.
When I use "Cast to" on a music file it momentarily says searching then shows the Roberts radio. But 'Casting' to the radio has no effect.
However the radio is not shown in the Connected Device list in the PC Settings, and trying Add Device fails to find it (though it does find a neighbour's Sony Bravia TV).
The desktop is Ethernet connected to the router, the laptop is wirelessly connected, as is the Roberts radio. Could it be the laptop's WiFi somehow inhibiting connection to the radio?
The only other difference I can think of is that the laptop is running Win 10 Anniversary Edition (build 1607), the desktop is running the November 2015 build (1511).
Rebooting the laptop made no difference.
I have a feeling it's going to be something simple. But I need a steer in the right direction.
Any thoughts would be most welcome?
