connecting 5100mp to multiple pcs
Well, it seems like I am not the only one that thought a network projector would allow you to send files to it through the network.
Since, I can not. What is the best way for me to connect 9 pcs to my projector? This is for my classroom.
Thank you.

I need the instructor's computer to be the main pc shown on the screen. Second object, it would be helpful to be able to show student's pc on the screen also.
Isn't this pc suppose to be wireless? That's what I asked for.

What are you trying to accomplish? You could use a video switch but depending on what you are trying to do thats a costly and cumbersome way to go.

No, it's not wireless and the network portion is for remote management not transmitting images. You can get a wireless projector but one that has the same quality of image will probably cost you quite a bit more.
Another option if you want wireless would be an wireless video extender, I did a search on the web and there are a lot of them out there, they cost anywhere from around $200.00 to over $1000.00. Just remember if you do get one, most of the cheaper models will only support 1024 X 768 video, your projector has a native resolution of 1400 x 1050.
A third option would be to use remote desktop to show students screens when you need to, it would take a little setting up but once it was done it would be fairly easy and wouldn't cost you anything.
