  • Stops receiving WiFi signal every 5 to 13 minutes. Recast reconnects instantly. Forums say they only last 2-3 years. Is this true? Do I ditch my 2 yr old Chromecast?

Hey Wadsal, 

Thanks for visiting the Community.

Since this thread hasn't had activity in a while, we're going to close it to keep content fresh. 

We hope you were able to get the help you need but if you're still having trouble, please give these steps a try:

 

  • Make sure your devices are within 15-20 feet of your router.
  • Reboot your Chromecast, router and casting device.
  • Toggle the Wi-Fi off/on on your casting device.
  • Turn off power saving mode.
  • Perform a reset on your Chromecast.

If the issue persists, feel free to submit another post and provide as many details as possible so that others can lend a hand. Hope this helps! 

Best, 
Alex
