The other trick I gathered from the comments is that if you buy the real one, you need to disable the “check for updates” part. Lots of people complaining that they bought a life-time license but it auto-updated and then wouldn’t work until they paid a bunch more.

I use it to remote control my wife's server. Paid version allows installing as a service. Also free to use for non commercial. I don't use the multiple presentation mode but its there. Can even use client from smartphone. I did it on my phone from Bali once. Not cheap but its worth it.

It really feels like it shouldn’t be rocket science to try to do this. It seems insane to send your screen images out to the cloud and then back in to ten other machines in the same room, that are on the same network. There has to be a simpler way.

I have been working with some video capture, and came across one or two CodeProject articles that describe setting up your screen as a capture device, so it could be used in conjunction with VLC multicasting, or via .NET code with nVLC (a wrapper for libvlc – see also a CodeProject, by Roman Ginzburg). It seems a circuitous route, though. _____ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Greg Low (GregLow.com) Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2012 7:40 PM To: 'Ken Schaefer'; 'ozDotNet' Subject: RE: VNC over wireless vs cabled Hi Ken, Good question for #1. Can’t find any reference to it in the setup or in the manual. For #2, answer is no at present. Mind you, for some reason it’s stopped even when they’re on the same wired network. Earlier today that worked L There really must be a good way to project a screen image to a set of machines on the same wired network without having to go out an Internet connection and back in. Anyone got any other ideas?

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.
