5 Quick Connection Mode and Advanced Connection ModeThere are two methods of connecting the projector and a computer with a wireless LAN, Quick Connection Mode and Advanced Connection Mode.fQuick Connection Mode In Quick Connection Mode the projector and a computer can be connected easily without making any complex network settings.* Use Quick Connection Mode when you want to connect quickly with a wireless LAN. Quick Connection Mode uses an ad hoc connection (a connection among computers with a common ESSID) to connect. You can connect to a computer equipped with either of the following. • Wireless LAN card Computers with a built-in wireless LAN function See the Wireless LAN Quick Connection Guide for details on connecting using Quick Connection Mode. * In Quick Connection Mode, because the projector’s ESSID is temporarily assigned to the computer, you do not have to make any setup operations from the computer. After it has been cut off, the computer’s network settings automatically return to their original condition. fAdvanced Connection Mode In Advanced Connection Mode, you can connect to the network system via a wireless LAN access point. Use Advanced Connection Mode when you want to connect as part of a network system or take security measures.
