When WPS is supported
The following two connection methods are available. Connection
can be established easier with WPS (PBC mode).
• Connecting via WPS (PBC mode): Perform the operations

described on page 28.

• Connecting via WPS (PIN mode): Perform the operations

described on page 29.

When WPS is not supported
• Connecting to a detected network manually: Perform the

operations described on page 31.

Access Point Encryption

The transmitter supports the following options for [Authentication] and
[Encryption settings]. Therefore, when connecting to a detected
network manually, the encryption used by the access point must be one
of the following.

[Authentication]: Open system, Shared key, or WPA/WPA2-PSK

[Encryption settings]: WEP, TKIP, or AES

Checking the Type of Access Point

If stealth functions of the access point are active, connection may
be disabled. Deactivate stealth functions.

When connecting to a network that has a network administrator, ask the
administrator about the detailed setting procedures.

If the network you use filters by MAC address, register the MAC address of
the transmitter at the access point. The MAC address can be checked on
the [Function settings] screen (p.114).
