when another computer tries to connect with the projector, and it connects with the computer that is trying to
connect.
Therefore, when a Projector Keyword is not set for the projector, or if you know the Projector Keyword, you can cut
off the current connection and, if you perform a connection operation, you can connect to the projector.
When a Projector Keyword is set for the projector, if you do not know the Projector Keyword, restart the projector and
reconnect.
Remedy
Check that the optional Wireless LAN unit is securely connected.
When the Network Configuration screen is displayed on the projector, network connection for EasyMP Network
Projection is disabled. Close network settings on the projector, and return to the LAN standby screen.

electromagnetic wave situation.
For Wireless LAN
Is the computer's Wireless LAN electromagnetic wave set to low? Set the electromagnetic wave strength to maximum.
Does the Wireless LAN conform to 802.11g, 802.11b, or 802.11a? It is only compatible with standards 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a, and not with other standards such as 802.11.
Is the firewall turned off, or has the firewall been registered as an
exception?
When you do not wish to turn off the firewall or register the firewall as an exception, make the necessary settings to
open the ports.
The ports used by EasyMP Network Projection are "3620", "3621", and "3629".
