If you have any issues with Duet connecting at startup or after waking from sleep please check that 'Launch at Login' is enabled in Duet's menu bar app preferences and that Duet is a login item in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items. If Duet is not present as a Login Item, enable it in Duet's Mac app preferences and log out or restart your Mac to add it back.
OS X will prevent automatic login if you have FileVault encryption enabled (found in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > FileVault) or iCloud Keychain enabled (found in System Preferences > iCloud > uncheck Keychain.
If you are still not able to login you may need to purchase a monitor dongle. Some older Mac and Mac Mini models require a physical connection to be registered in order to startup and login – here's more information on this.
