A new screen will display all the wireless networks found. Select the desired network, and click Apply.

The Y-cam will automatically choose the best options for connecting to the network.

You then need to enter your Wi-Fi password.

If your network is not listed, try repositioning your Y-cam nearer to the wireless device.

If you need to, you can enter your Wi-Fi network details manually; instructions on how to do this are below:

[SSID]
Type the ID of the wireless network you want to connect to or an easier option is to click “Search” and all
available Wireless Networks in range will be displayed. If your network isn’t listed, move the camera closer to your
wireless router or access point.

[Mode]
Infrastructure mode or Adhoc mode:

Adhoc Mode: Select Adhoc mode when you want to connect the camera wirelessly directly to your computer.
Infrastructure Mode: Select Infrastructure mode when the camera is connected via an access point or router.

If you have connected your camera to your network via a router or switch, you will need the settings for “Infrastructure”
setup. If you have connected your camera directly to a computer, you will need the next section for “Adhoc” setup.

Infrastructure Wireless Setup Options

[Security mode] Select the type of security mode that your wireless network is using. None (i.e off), WEP64, WEP128,
WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK

Whichever you are using, you will need to enter the settings to connect to your router. Each mode has default settings,
which should suit most installations.

Any “key” it requires is the password you use to access your Wi-Fi / Wireless Connection. You need to enter this twice
so it matches.

Security Mode Options

[Authentication] Select the type of authentication that your router requires.

[Key type] Select the WEP/WPA key type. Either in hexadecimal (Hex) or ASCII characters. Note: Most routers provide
WEP keys in Hex format.

[Encryption type] Select either TKIP or AES for your default encryption setting.

[WEP/WPA key]
Type the encryption key that matches that of your router. You will need to enter this twice.

Once you have entered your settings, click “Apply” to save them. If you have entered different keys when retyping them
or the key doesn’t match the length or type of characters required by the encryption type, the camera will notify you.

Once the correct settings are saved, click on “Test” to test the settings. The test will take a few moments to run, and if
your connection can successfully send and receive data, you will get a “success” message.
