Yes, Goo gle’s Cast devices have been breaking Wi Fi networks, but a fix is coming tomorrow
Yes, Goo.gle’s Cast devices have been breaking Wi-Fi networks, but a fix is coming tomorrow.
Earlier this week, reports emerged about Google’s Cast devices, most notably the Chromecast and Google Home, sending so much traffic through home Wi-Fi networks that the router would crash. At the time, Google only tangentially acknowledged the issue, and the sole technical analysis of the problem came from a TP-Link support page.
However, Google now has a full support page for the issue, in which the company acknowledges that the problem is caused by having an Android and Cast device on the same network. More importantly, Google says that a full software patch will be rolling out starting Thursday, January 18th.
