Q: QuestionI am trying to connect my surface computer to my epson powerlite 1781w projector. It's asking for a keyword, what should I enter? If ever, can I bypass it? Please help me, so I can use it wireless... ? Thanks, danny

Asked 7 years ago by danny.

• A:Answer I had same issue. Read the manual and install a software for laptop/ desktop, which is available online as well as in the CD. Follow the instructions in the CD and it will take care of the problem. Once connected through the software, use that for a wireless connection. They also have Apps for iPhone, which is good for presentations but does not work with video.
