How to Setting up a direct Wi-Fi connection for a Zoom Room Mac

How to Setting up a direct Wi-Fi connection for a Zoom Room Mac

If your location has an Ethernet connection only and there is no network that allows traffic between the Zoom Rooms computer and the Zoom Room Controller, then you can set up a direct Wi-Fi connection from your Zoom Room Mac computer to the Zoom Room Controller.

It is only possible to connect directly to the internet via wi-fi using a Mac computer and an Ethernet cable. There will be a need to configure your network firewall in case you only have Wi-Fi or a PC computer connected to the Zoom Room, so that traffic can be transmitted between the Zoom Room computer and controller.

Prerequisites

  • Computers with Mac OS X
  • Connecting the computer to an Ethernet network
