There are several connection methods you can use
to set up a wireless network: searching for an
access point, using a WPS connecting method
(either the push button configuration method or the
PIN code method), or manual setting.
Select the connection method that can be used for
your home network using the chart on page 23.
Notes
• Make sure not to use the wireless LAN function in a
place where medical equipment (such as a pacemaker)
is used or the use of wireless communication is
prohibited.
• Before connecting to your home network, you need to
prepare a wireless LAN router/access point. For details,
refer to the operating manual of the device.
• Depending on your home network environment, the
wireless LAN router/access point may have been set up
such that it cannot be connected using WPS, even
though it is compatible with WPS. For details on
whether your wireless LAN router/access point is
compatible or not compatible with WPS, and on the
setup of a WPS connection, refer to the operating
manual of your wireless LAN router/access point.
• You may encounter setup difficulties if the unit and the
wireless LAN router/access point are located too far
from each other. If you do, move the devices closer to
each other.
