Notice : This obviously suggests RDC (RDP) while other means are possible. Remote Desktop Connection is advised because it does what it needs to do in all aspects. Other means may too, but it wasn't investigated and the smallest detail may let not work something conveniently.

Notice : In order for RDC to work, the main (Audio) PC needs to have a Password (which you use to Login always). But :
WARNING : Once you set a Password you will not be able to get rid of it afterwards. So, if you have reasons to not want a Password, then RDC can not be used.

Let's create the RDC Icon on the desktop of the laptop :
Open a Command Prompt (Start button - Run - cmd)
In the now opened Dos Box enter mstsc [Enter]
In the Computer field enter the IP address which you can obtain by means of :

- make sure Bluetooth PAN has been established (see Tutorial);
- run the command line (cmd) in the main PC (the audio PC);
- type 'ipconfig'

Look for the IP address you will see for the "Ethernet Adapter Bluetooth Network Connection" at the IPv4 address. In "my" case this is 169.254.108.156.

When you click the Options field (left bottom) the form expands and you can enter your credentials and more detailed stuff like the resolution to be used and more.

The below two screens are of some importance :

The last picture merely shows that we don't need anything from our remotely controlled PC (it would cause overhead only), and in my case I left the SmartCard option ticked, not exactly knowing what may change if I untick it (this is security stuff). You may try to untick it when you have some spare time.

Save this like PAN.rdp or something (can be done when the form is expanded - Save As) but maintain the .rdp extension. Now it will show up on the desktop, ready to be double clicked and tried. But one thing first now :

Here you see the Audio PC and it being connected to the LAN via the middle adapter. It is just running and we assume this is necessary for everybody who thinks it is. BUT, this will not be the situation we are hunting for, and XXHighEnd will shut it off when in Settings the Services are disabled and the LAN services are *not* kept. So, no worries here. Now, this is the laptop's same screen :

Here the middle adapter shows a WLAN connection via WiFi. This too can stay in real life, but at this time we want to disable it, just because we must proove that we did all right. So, we don't want out RDC connection to run over the LAN. It shouldn't, but if you did something "wrong" like entering another IP address in the first screen you see in this chapter, then it might not travel the route we intend. So, rightclick on this middle adapter (thus, on the laptop) and choose Disable.
No red cross will appear, but a grayish "Disabled" will show it is (after a few seconds).
Of course you will choose your own possibly running network connection, which could be a cabled one (like the right one in the last picture).
