<When another firewall has been detected>
Are any firewall-containing applications installed?
If any applications which contain firewalls are installed, the installation may hang up at the [Projector search in progress]
display (some firewalls function even when not started).
If this occurs, firewall settings must be changed in order to allow connection to the wireless network. See the User's Manuals
for all applications containing firewalls to perform these settings.
<When the user does not have the administrator authority>
• If you have logged onto a computer as a [GUEST] or a restricted user who does not have administrator authority,
you can not perform easy wireless set up (Network No. [1] – [4]). If you must perform easy wireless set up without
administrator authority, designate [U] as the network number.
See pages 44-47 for instructions in how to set [U] as the network number.
• With the connection method in "When logging on without administrator authority," when the "Wireless Networks" tab is
not shown, complete the following settings.
1. Click [Start]→[Control Panel]→[Administrative Tools]→[Services].
The "Services" window appears.
2. Find [Wireless Zero Configuration] in the list.
3. If the status is blank, right-click it and select "Properties."
4. In [Service status], click [Start].
5. Click [OK].
The status is now shown as [Started].
6. Close the window.
