Checking Your Wi-Fi Environment

To use Wi-Fi, a Wi-Fi base unit (Wi-Fi router, etc.) that acts as your access point must be connected to a computer. Be sure to use a Wi-Fi base unit that conforms to the Wi-Fi standard listed in “Specifications” (=171).

If you are already using Wi-Fi, confirm the following items and mark each one on the Check sheet. For instructions on checking network settings, refer to the access point user guide.

•If system administrator status is needed to adjust network settings,

contact the system administrator for details.

•These settings are very important for network security. Exercise adequate caution when changing these settings.

• A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for connecting multiple computers. A router that contains an internal Wi-Fi function is called a “Wi-Fi router”.

•This guide refers to all Wi-Fi routers and base stations as “access points”.

•If you use MAC address filtering on your Wi-Fi network, be sure to add the camera’s MAC address to your access point. You can check your camera’s MAC address by choosing the [3] tab, [Wi-Fi Settings], and then [Check MAC Address].
