Setting up the wireless LAN (Continued)
The higher the number of bits, the stronger the encryption, and hence the harder it will
be for a third party to decipher your communications. However, setting higher encryp-
tion levels may slow down communication speed. To set the highest security level,
specify a 128-bit WEP key. For higher security, avoid using a word found in a dictionary
and change the key sometimes.
Set the following item if you have set the communication mode to Infrastructure.
<DHCP>
If you set DHCP to Use, the IP address of the projector is assigned automatically by the
DHCP server. If your network environment does not assign IP addresses automatically,
set DHCP to Not use, then set the following items IP address, Subnet mask and
Gateway manually.
<IP address>
When DHCP is set to Not use, consult with your network administrator for the settings
below and set the IP address manually.
An IP address is a unique number assigned to a terminal. The format is a string of four
dot-separated three-digit numbers. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)
<Subnet mask>
A subnet mask is used to determine what subnet the IP address assigned to a terminal
belongs to. (Example: 255.255.xxx.xxx)
<Gateway>
This value specifies the device, such as a router, to be used to access servers outside
the network. It is identified by the IP address. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)
• [Setting initialization]
This item resets the wireless LAN settings to their factory defaults.
• [Projector name]
This can be used to identify projectors when communicating with multiple projectors, or
if there is a possibility that another person who is out of communication range will be
using the same projector. It is recommended this is set to prevent wrong transmission.
Note
• You need to set a different projector name from that used in the item Wired LAN of
the Control setting menu.
• [WEB browser]
<Browser authentication>
Browser authentication and Password are factory-set to Off and no string, respec-
tively. You should set them as soon as possible.
<Password>
If you have forgotten your password, set it again using the menu on the main unit.

Computer settings

Refer to instruction manuals of your computer or wireless LAN PC card to perform the
following settings.
• Select Ad hoc (for some PC cards, this is Peer-to-Peer Group).
• [Channel] : You may need to set channels depending on the wireless LAN PC card being
used. Make the [Channel] settings identical to the computer settings.
• Set SSID (for some types of PC card, use Network name instead) as the same as
projector's SSID (at factory shipment, this is set to TDPJ).
• If Encryption and WEP key are set on the projector, set to the same values.
Note
• The Easy Connect utility p.70 allows users to easily connect the projector to a computer
over wireless networks, without making network setting. For Easy Connect support, the
computer requires a wireless LAN environment that is NDIS5.1 compliant.
Refer to the user's manual supplied with the wireless LAN adapter or the wireless LAN
embedded computer for more information.
