Nice solution. It’s actually a problem which occurs on much higher scale on outlook. But, some information is missing. If this doesn’t works then what’s the next solution

Hi Frankie, just thought I should let you know. Someone else reported a similar thing over on the gist version of this information. I have documented an alternative workaround based on their findings. Hope this helps you:

Interesting. I can’t verify as I don’t have a Chromecast Ultra device, in my experience with the Chromecast 2, these iptables rules did not affect the visibility of any Chromecast device on the LAN.

I’ve got a chromecast ultra, and doing this (blocking Google DNS) appears to make my chromecast go invisible on the network. i wonder if anyone experienced this?

Hi Hristov,

I posted this 2 years ago, so I’m not sure what the original problem was. If you can explain the issue you’re having I’ll see what I can do to help.

Hi All,

Did someone tried this method?
I already test, it was unsuccessful for me 🙁

Please advice.

Thanks,

Hi James,
well I have an XPS 9530 fully loaded (i7 16 GB 512 mSSD 3K display) but the performance in windows 10 is so bad and buggy. I’m running bios A04 and I’ve read A09 have some specific updates for win 10. but I’m afraid to update and break the laptop. is there a safe path to fellow for updating if you have a working machine to work with? thank in advance.
