Setting Up Your Mac for Ad Hoc Mode

Your AirPort software is automatically configured to allow your Mac to detect both computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) and Access Point networks.

Typically, you only need to select your projector’s ESSID from the AirPort status menu on the Mac menu bar. If you’re having problems detecting the projector, follow these steps:

1.From the Apple pull-down menu, select System Preferences.2.Double-click the Network icon. You see the Network settings window.

note

When you connect in Ad Hoc mode, your connection to other wireless networks or devices is broken. If you need to remain connected to your wireless network, use Access Point mode, as described on page 65. Also, make sure you reconnect to your original wireless network when you are done using the projector.
