ing to a wireless router easier.
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
If your wireless router is WPS-compatible (bears
the logo shown on the right), connecting the cam-
corder to it can be very easy. With WPS, you will
either use the [WPS: Button] method or [WPS: PIN
Code] method (see the description in the previous section). If you can-
not successfully connect the camcorder using WPS, try using the
SCN
[WPS: Button]* Simply press and hold the WPS button on your
wireless router and then touch the camcorder’s screen. This is
the easiest connection method if you are using a WPS-compati-
ble router. For details, see
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
(A 138).
[WPS: PIN Code]* Access the wireless router’s configuration screen
using your Web browser. The camcorder will give you a PIN
code, which you will enter into the browser. You will need a WPS-
compatible router and a computer or other device connected to
it. For details, see
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) (A 138).
[Search for Access Points] Following the camcorder’s onscreen
instructions, you select your wireless router from a list and then
enter your password. For details, see
Searching for Access
Points (A 139)
[Manual Setup] You manually enter the wireless router’s name,
password and other network settings. This method is recom-
mended for advanced users of Wi-Fi networks. For details, see
Manual Setup (A 140).
