If you’ve changed any settings for your projector or network, or
you’ve restarted your computer, allow a minute or two for the
connection to appear. If you’re using AirPort, you may have to
turn AirPort off and then on again.

Make sure that you’re trying to connect to the right network. In
Windows, verify that you’ve enabled your computer’s connection
to the access point (see page 85) or that your wireless card or
adapter is enabled and its SSID is set to match the projector’s
ESSID (see page 75). In Macintosh, click the AirPort icon at the
top of your Macintosh desktop to make sure AirPort is turned on
and the projector’s ESSID or your AirPort network is selected.

If you have an access point or AirPort base station and you’re not
using DHCP, check your projector’s IP address on the Access
point mode advanced settings screen. The first three segments of
the IP address should be identical to the first three segments of the
IP address for your access point or base station. The last segment
of the projector’s IP address should be close, but not identical, to
the last segment of the IP address for your access point or base
station.

If you’re not using DHCP, check your projector’s Gateway
address on the projector’s Access point mode advanced settings
screen. It should be identical to the IP address for your access
point or AirPort base station.

If you’re using a projector keyword, it changes each time you turn
the projector off and then on again, or remove and reinsert the
802.11b wireless card. Check the projector’s keyword on the
EasyMP Network screen and enter it at the prompt.

If you’re using AirPort, check the configuration of your AirPort
network. Start the AirPort Admin utility, select your base station,
click

Configure

, then click

Show All Settings

. Finally, click the

Network

tab. If you set up your projector to connect in DHCP

mode,

Distribute IP Addresses

and

Share a Single IP

Address

should both be on.

If you’re using AirPort and DHCP is turned off on your
projector’s Access point mode advanced settings screen, make sure

Distribute IP Addresses

is deselected.
