      If the LED indicator on the Button remains static red even after it has been powered on for 30 seconds on your BenQ Projector Accessories, it indicates that the Button has not been properly powered off during the resetting process. Reset the Button.

    What to do if BenQ Projector Accessories pairing failed?
    • S
      Samuel HarrisSep 10, 2025
      If the message "Pairing failed" from the Host is shown on the display when the Host is pairing with the Button of your BenQ Projector Accessories, it could be due to several reasons. One possibility is that the Host has reached the maximum number of pairings. To resolve this, log into the web management, then select Pairing Status and delete unnecessary pairings. Wi-Fi interference or signal attenuation could also be the cause. Ensure the transmission distance is within 15M and with no obstacles. Additionally, the Button may not have entered the pairing mode in time. When the Host enters pairing mode, the Button should also enter pairing mode within two minutes.

      If the LED indicator of the Button is always off when using BenQ Projector Accessories, it indicates there is no power supply. Check the USB-C™ port of your laptop. If the port fails to function, try other USB-C™ ports.

      Chelsea BrownSep 15, 2025
      To address the issue of being unable to log in to your BenQ Projector Accessories, reset the Host. The default login account is 'admin', and the default login password is '0000'. Note that you may be required to change the password at the first access to web management or after a firmware upgrade.

    Why BenQ WDC20C laptop won't connect to Wi-Fi?
    • T
      Tiffany MartinezSep 18, 2025
      If your laptop cannot connect to the SSID with the correct password by Wi-Fi with BenQ Projector Accessories, it may be because the laptop Wi-Fi module cannot support 802.11 AC. In this case, the laptop can connect to the Host with an Ethernet cable instead of a Wi-Fi connection.
