2. Network Setup

Depending on where your presentation content is located and the number of participantsin the

presentation, you may select one of the following connection modes from the NE3000 home

screen.

A) Client Mode – for when yourcontent is residing in a private cloud or the Internet cloud, and

the number of participants is more than eight

B) Hotspot Mode – for when your content isresidingon your PC or tablet, and the number of

participants is eight or fewer

C) Neither – for when your content is stored on your microSD card

The NE3000 defaults to start up in Wi-Fi Hotspot mode, which is the most direct way to create a

wireless presentation without using a Wi-Fi access point (AP) or connecting to a wired network. If

this is your preferred mode, go to section 2.1 “Hotspot Mode” for steps on making a presentation.

If you would prefer to make your presentation through an existing network (either wireless or

wired), please refer to section 2.2 “Client Mode” in this chapter.
