Solving Connection Problems If you don't see your projector on the EMP NS Connection screen, then check the following: ❏ Make sure your wireless signal is strong enough to establish a connection. If you have a Mac, check the AirPort icon on the Mac menu bar. For Windows, see the documentation for your access point or wireless network card or adapter. ❏ Make sure you're trying to connect to the right network. In Windows, verify that you've enabled your computer's connection to the access point or that your wireless card or adapter is enabled, and that its SSID matches the projector's ESSID. In Mac OS X, check the AirPort status menu (click the AirPort icon on your menu bar) to make sure AirPort is turned on and the projector's ESSID or your AirPort network is selected. ❏ Make sure you aren't projecting one of the EasyMP configuration screens. (You should see a message that the projector is ready to connect.) If you have to exit a configuration screen, restart NS Connection. ❏ Make sure the ESSID for your projector matches the SSID for your wireless card, adapter, or access point. If you have an AirPort base station, make sure the projector's ESSID matches the AirPort network name. Remember that the ESSID is case-sensitive. ❏ Check the IP address for both your projector and your wireless card, adapter, access point, or AirPort base station. The first three octets of the IP address should be identical. The last octet of the projector's IP address should be close, but not identical, to the last octet of the IP address for your wireless interface, access point, or base station. ❏ Restart your computer and start NS Connection again. ❏ If you still don't see your projector, follow the instructions in "Connecting in Advanced Connection Mode" in the next section to connect to the printer. 18 - PowerLite 1810p/1815p 3/08
