Recommended Wireless Environment for Multi PC
Projection
When you connect multiple devices to a projector using the Quick connection
mode, we recommend limiting the number of devices to six or less to
maintain the projection performance. The number of devices that can connect
to a projector at the same time differs depending on the wireless
communication environment.
When you connect a projector to a wireless LAN and connect multiple
devices wirelessly using the Advanced connection mode, note the following
recommendations.
• Set up multiple access points so that one of the access points can connect up
to 10 or 20 devices. See the access point manual for more information on
the maximum number of devices that can be connected.
• When you use multiple access points, assign a different channel to each
access point, and use different access points for the projector connection
and the computer connection.
• Use a wireless LAN controller, if possible, to enhance the connection
stability.
• Use an access point that supports 802.11n.
Contact your network administrator for help in setting up the wireless
environment.
aIf your projector supports a wired LAN connection, we recommend
using a wired LAN connection when you connect multiple devices to
the projector.
