Configuring a Wireless Connection

If you have installed the optional wireless LAN module (G5150NL
and G5350NL only), you can use NS Connection to connect to the
projector and send images wirelessly in two modes: Ad Hoc mode or
Access Point mode.
Ad Hoc mode (computer-to-computer mode) lets you connect
■
just one computer to the projector at a time; it's easy to set up,
and the only equipment you need is a computer with a wireless
(802.11g, 802.11b, or 802.11a) network card or adapter, or a
®
Macintosh with an AirPort
you connect to the projector in this mode, you cannot connect to
other wireless networks or devices; you can connect to the
projector only.
■ Access Point mode (infrastructure mode) lets multiple computers
access the projector at the same time and easily trade off control
over the projector. To use Access Point mode, you need a wireless
(802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g) access point or an AirPort
Extreme (or AirPort) base station, and one or more computers
with wireless network cards or adapters.
Follow the instructions below for the mode you want to use.
