Hi All
A friend is producing a school play ( we will rock you) and needs to be able to send wireless stills and some footage from a laptop to a fixed position projector. Connecting to a vga input on the projector. The distance between the devices is approx 10 metres.
I believe there is a strong WiFi signal in the hall where the performance will take place and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on this adapter:

If the WiFi isnt strong enough then the other options are
a) a dedicated wireless connection but not sure if 10m is to far for that to work. or
b) A hard wired connection - but to route the cable out of sight and safely it would need to be around 30m in length - would this be an issue regarding signal loss at all?
Is there perhaps a better way than any of the above?
All comments welcome
