Wireless Network Settings

The Wireless Camera Setup Utility may require information on some or all of the following wireless network settings:

Item	Description
Network Name (SSID)	Enter a name for the wireless network or choose from a list of existing
(required)	networks. Do not change the name if it is supplied automatically .

(required)	• Access Point (Infrastructure): Infrastructure networks include a wireless ac-
	cess point connected to a local-area network.
Channel	The channel used for peer-to-peer wireless communication (ad-hoc
	networks only). Choose from channels 1–11.
	The type of authentication used by the computer or access point. The
Authentication	camera supports WPA-PSK (infrastructure mode only), open system, and
	shared key authentication.

	(uses only the numbers 0–9 and the letters a–f ) or ASCII.
Security Key	If the network uses TKIP or WEP encryption, enter the network key.
Key Index	In infrastructure networks that use WEP encryption, enter the host or ac-
	cess point key index. The default index is 1.
Configure	Note whether the network is confi gured to supply IP address automati-
(required)	cally (the default setting) or manually.
IP address	If the network is confi gured for manual IP addresses, enter the IP address
	that will be assigned to the camera.

MAC Address Filtering

If the wireless network uses MAC address fi ltering, you will need to supply the fi lter with the camera’s MAC address. Choose Firmware version from the camera setup menu ( 89) and note the camera MAC address.

Port Numbers

The camera uses UDP port 5353 and TCP port 15740. If you are using a fi rewall, you will need to confi gure it to leave these ports open.
