“Connect to an existing network” check box

A “Connect to an existing network” check box also will appear on the “Select Network” dialog box if you are running Wireless Connection 2 under Windows XP or 2000. Select this check box only if you want to establish a connection between the computer and Data Projector via an existing wireless LAN access point.

To establish a connection via an existing wireless LAN access point

1 Change the projector’s Manual Connection 1 settings so they match the settings of the access point (page 29).

2 Establish a wireless LAN connection between the access point and computer, and then start up Wireless Connection 2.

3 Click [Cancel] to close the connection dialog box that appears.

4 Select [Connection] - [Select Network].

5 On the “Select Network” dialog box that appears, select the “Connect to an existing network” check box and then click [OK].

zThis will cause Wireless Connection 2 to shut down automatically.

6 Restart Wireless Connection 2.

7 Perform the procedure starting from step 7 under “To establish a wireless LAN connection with Manual Connection 1 between the first computer and the Data Projector” (page 12).

8 To establish connections with a second and subsequent computers, for each of the additional computers perform steps 2 through 6 above and then perform steps 9 through 12 under “To establish a wireless LAN connection with Manual Connection 1 between the second and subsequent computers and the Data Projector” (page 15).

To return to the setting that does not use the existing wireless LAN access point, select [Connection] - [Select Network] on the Wireless Connection 2 window, and then clear the check box next to “Connect to an existing network” on the “Select Network” dialog box.

Important!

No connection profile operations (switching, creation, editing, setting send) can be performed while there is a connection between a computer and the Data Projector via an existing access point. Also, the “Connect to the same network next time” option is not available on the “Select Network” dialog box while “Connect to an existing network” is selected.
