To start with, check if the access point supports WPS* that allows easy
connection between Wi-Fi devices.
If you do not know if the access point you use is WPS-compatible, refer
to the access point instruction manual or other documentation.

* Wi-Fi Protected Setup

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 93.

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

described on page 96.

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

operations described on page 99.

Access Point Encryption

This camera supports the following options for [Authentication] and
[Encryption settings]. Therefore, 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 camera at the access point. The MAC address can be checked on the
[General sett.] screen (p.116).
