Unfortunately i do not think your TP-Link TL-WN722N Wireless N150 USB Adapter supports Miracast. That is what the last line of the command prompt is telling you.

Wireless Display Supported: No (Graphics Driver: Yes, Wi-Fi Driver: No)
okay better that than gpu. so if i change my wi fi adapter with the one that supports miracast, it should work?

im asking cuz i don't need wi fi adapter otherwise and it would be pure waste of money if it doesn't work.

I can't guarantee it will work with a new Wi-Fi adapter since i do not know the detailed specs of your computer, but yes it should work. My guess is the Wireless N150 adapter you have is too slow to send a video stream to your TV in any case. That is likely the reason TP-Link does not bother providing driver support for Miracast, it would just continuously stutter and drop out.

problem is i can't find which components are actually important for miracast to work. from my understanding you need wind10, gpu and wi fi adapter that support miracast?

You are correct, your GPU, Wi-Fi adapter and the TV all need to support Miracast. Miracast support is built into Windows 10.
