If you are casting to your TV from the VidAngel mobile app, they will both need to be on the same WIFI network so they can "see" each other. Make sure both devices are using WIFI and not an ethernet cable. If you have a dual-band router, make sure both devices are on either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands.
