Hi Stephen,
Tight VNC Projector just takes screen changes at predefined timeframes (eg: 10ms) and sends them out as a stream of UDP packets on port 5892, using multicast. The Receiver program should then just pick them up and display what’s on the screen. The trick nowadays seems to get to get the packets from the sender to the receivers.

Sounds like a useful setup. Does the projector support adhoc connections? Maybe you can dispense with the router all together? cheers, Stephen On Thu, Sep 20, 2012 at 1:12 PM, Greg Low (GregLow.com) <g...@greglow.com> wrote: Hi Folks, If I use Tight VNC Projector to project my screen using VNC over UDP 5982 with wired connections to a router, all is good. But if I try to do that using a wireless connection to the same router, I’m having no luck at all. Any ideas on this? I can’t see anything blocked in the router config, specifically for wireless connections. I’d love to be able to just take a wireless router with me, and be able to project my desktop to the other machines in the room, without the need for either a projector or a switch and cables.
