I have to give a presentation later today(off my mac of course!), and would really like to be able to use my iPhone as a remote. I suckered up and bought the $.99 app yesterday, however when connected to my school's network my iPhone and MacBook don't appear able to find each other. My guess is that they prohibit broadcasting on the network.
Is there some way to force an IP to connect to? Or maybe do it over an AdHoc network? I tried AdHoc breifly yesterday, but even after being connected to my MBP's network the Keynote Remote app complained it wasn't connected to a WiFi network.
Any suggestions?
I suppose if I really get compelled I can do some very very fancy ssh forwarding stuff between my MacBook, iPhone and linux server, but I have a feeling there is an easier way.
TiA!
