Connecting to a Projector on a Different Subnet 35 Connecting to a Projector on a Different Subnet This chapter explains how to connect a computer to a projector on a different sub-net via a Wired LAN or a wireless LAN access point on an existing network system. By default, this application only searches for projectors on the same subnet as the computer. Therefore, even if you perform a search for projectors on the network, projectors on a different subnet will not be found. You can, however, identify and connect to a projector on a different subnet as follows: • In advanced connection mode, specify either an IP address or Projector name and perform a search. The IP Address can be input directly. Also, provided the Projector name to be connected has been registered on the DNS server, you can perform a search simply by inputting that Projector name. • Performing a search based on a Profile Once you have performed a search for a projector on a different subnet by specifying either an IP Address or a Projector name, you can save the search as a Profile with an easy-to-remember name, and then use that Profile whenever you subsequently want to search for a projector on a different subnet. s p.36 q If a search fails to find a projector, the most likely causes are as follows. Proceed as appropriate, depending on the cause of the failure. • For both Windows and Mac OS: If there is no wireless LAN signal or if the signal is weak, check whether there is anything that could be interfering with the signal. • When the optional Wireless 802.11g/b/a Module is installed in the projector and you are connecting to a wireless LAN with Mac OS: Check whether AirPort is set to On. Or, check whether an appropriate access point has been selected. • When you use Manual search in Quick Connection Mode, you can specify the SSID. When there are a lot of projectors you can narrow the search field by using SSID.
