Peer to peer airplay

Question

hi
I'm using yosemite on an mid 2012 macbook pro and an apple tv rev a with os7.0.
i can't figure out how to use peer to peer airplay.
my wifi router is a very weak, so the peer to peer would help me a lot.
the wifi is turned on in the screenshot, but not logged into a network.
greetings michael

iPad 3rd generation doesn't support Peer-to-Peer Airplay. Apple quietly said it was for iOS devices introduced in LATE 2012. Like for Handoff; certain devices with the latest Wi-Fi specifications can get this feature. The iPad 3 was introduced in EARLY 2012. I tried, but it didn't work. Here is what I found in the Apple TV Section.
AirPlay requires an Apple TV (2nd generation or later) with an iOS device running iOS 4.3 or later or a Mac with iTunes 10.2 or later. Some features require the latest software.
Peer-to-peer AirPlay requires a Mac (2012 or later) with OS X Yosemite or an iOS device (late 2012 or later) with iOS 8; and an Apple TV (3rd generation rev A, model A1469 or later) with Apple TV software 7.0 or later.
AirPlay Mirroring is available with iPhone 4s or later; iPad 2 or later; iPad mini; iPod touch (5th generation); and iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer), and Mac Pro (Late 2013) with OS X Mountain Lion or later.
Dual-screen capability is available with iPhone 4s or later, iPad 2 or later, iPad mini, and iPod touch (5th generation).
