Connection methods vary depending on whether the access point supports

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) or not. Refer to the user manual provided with

your access point to check if it supports WPS.

A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for connecting

multiple computers. A router that contains an internal Wi-Fi function is called a

“Wi-Fi router”.

This guide refers to all Wi-Fi routers and base stations as “access points”.

If you use MAC address filtering on your Wi-Fi network, be sure to add the

camera’s MAC address to your access point. You can check your camera’s

MAC address by choosing the [

3] tab, [Wi-Fi Settings], and then [Check MAC

Address].

Connecting to WPS-Compatible Access Points

WPS makes it easy to complete settings when connecting devices over

Wi-Fi. You can use either Push Button Configuration Method or PIN Method

for settings on a WPS supported device.
