Home Wireless LAN
• This refers to wireless LAN networks connected via ad-hoc mode or infrastructure mode at
home or at the office.
• If Internet connection is possible from the home wireless LAN (Infrastructure mode), you
can use the COOLPIX CONNECT service. However, if the home wireless LAN uses a proxy
server to connect to the Internet, the COOLPIX CONNECT service is not available.

Ad-hoc Mode and Infrastructure Mode
• Ad-hoc mode establishes a peer-to-peer (one-to-one) connec-
tion with a wireless LAN-capable device. With the
COOLPIX S7c’s wireless transfer mode, a peer-to-peer connec-
tion is established between the camera and computer.
• Infrastructure mode connects a wireless LAN-capable device to
a wireless LAN network via an access point. With the
COOLPIX S7c’s wireless transfer mode, this mode connects the
camera and computer via a wireless LAN access point.

The Wireless Camera Setup Utility
• To use wireless transfer mode (for configuration and transferring pictures), the Wireless
Camera Setup Utility 2.0 (Setup Utility hereafter) is necessary. Use the supplied Wireless
Camera Setup Utility/PictureProject Software CD to install the Setup Utility.
• The Setup Utility is used for configuring profiles, and must be installed to the computer
used for PC connection (c 130, 150). Also, the Setup Utility is used for renaming or delet-
ing profiles, changing the destination folder when transferring pictures to the computer,
and switching the printer used for wireless printing.
• See the Quick Start Guide for more information on installing the Setup Utility.
