In the above example, the SSID that the guest needs to connect to is called "Training Academy". Once
connected the client device will be able to see the TV and casting can be initiated.
The other option is to perform the casting completely yourself. When the [Secure Sharing OFF
Settings][Google Cast] is set to [Gateway], the TV will display an HTML page upon pressing the cast
button.
On this website the installer can implement his own solution on how to connect the TV and the client
device together so they are able to communicate directly. The page can be used as an instruction or
as the actual method of connecting client device to the TV.
These two implementations require installer interaction and will require the installer to consider
privacy issues as misconfiguration of the backend can lead to devices ending up in the same network
and being able to see if someone is casting or even take over the TV.
