# Can I connect to a Wi-Fi network and ScreenBeam simultaneously with my Miracast device?

Yes. We recommend you connect your device to an available Wi-Fi network first, then connect to ScreenBeam. Your PC creates a virtual network adapter during the wireless display connection process, this virtual adapter is used for the wireless display session. Your PC will maintain its connection to your infrastructure network while connected to ScreenBeam, you'll still be able to browse the web and access network resources like shared drives and printers during your wireless display session.
