I bought Anycast M2 Plus RK2928 for 2nd external monitor for my Dell Inspiron 17R. I have newest graphic drivers installed (manual way, Windows 7 blocks original Intel's drivers, so I had to update the driver thorough Device Manager).
I have installed newest Intel(R) WiDi Update Tool and Intel(R) WiDi Remote Setup.
When I switch the dongle to Miracast mode and run scan from Intel WiDi Windows 7 application I get Anycast-8ABF33 in the list of "wireless displays" with status "available".
After clicking "connect" I have to wait for a while until Anycast changes its message from "Waiting for connection" to "Connection in process", then nothing else happens, and Intel WiDi application shows an error: "There are no wireless displays detected".
After Anycast dongle turn-off->turn-on cycle the problem persists.
Is there any other software for Windows 7 to use Miracast protocol to connect to external display?
My laptop has compatible processor (i7 3610QM), chipset (HM77) and WiFi (Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230) – AFAIK all these components support WiDi.

Use widi driver 3.5.41.0. I have a miracast rk2928 and this is the only widi driver that works for me. You can get it from Softpedia.
