If wired Ethernet connection is not available while the power is on or if you simply prefer a wireless connection, the Network Camera will search for access points with the SSID “default”.

If the network camera is unable to find any such wireless device with the “default” settings, you will first need to install the Network Camera using a wired Ethernet connection before proceeding with the wireless LAN configuration. (You can configure the Network Camera onto your wireless LAN in the “Network” page within the “Configuration” section of the camera’s webpage.)
