Wireless Setting
Wireless connection Enable or disable the wireless function of the Internet Camera. By default, the function
is disabled.
Network Type
Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence of a Wireless LAN Access
Point or Router. All communication is done via the Access Point or Router.
Ad-Hoc – Select this mode if you want to connect to another wireless stations in the
Wireless LAN network without through an
Access Point or Router.
Available Networks Select the networks listed below and click apply to connect to the specified network.
SSID
The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a
WLAN ( for IC-1500Wg only). The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two
co-located WLANs.
You may specify a SSID for the card and then only the device with the same SSID can
interconnect to the card. If you want to add one of the networks nearby to the profile list,
pull down the menu, all the networks nearby will be listed and you can add one of them
to the profile list.
Channel This setting is only available for Ad Hoc mode. Select the number of the radio channel
used for the networking. The channel setting should be the same with the network you
are connecting to.
Basic Rate The camera will force to the data rate that you selected to transmit data.
Authentication and
Encryption Type
Choose the authentication type you want to use.
“None” means that you don’t want any encryption for wireless. “Open System” means
that you can use WEP for encryption or not to encryption. When you select “Shared
Key”, you must use WEP for encryption. The last option is “WPA-PSK”. When you
select this authentication type, you can encryption your wireless with WPA-TKIP or
WPA-AES.
WPA Pre-Shared Key The WPA-PSK key can be from 8 to 64 characters and can be letters or numbers. This
same key must be used on all of the wireless stations in the network.
WEP Key Length You may select 64-bit or 128-bit to encrypt transmitted data. Larger key length will
provide higher level of security, but the throughput will be lower.
WEP Key Format Hexdecimal – Only “A-F“, “a-f“ and “0-9“ are allowed to be set as WEP key.
ASCII – Numerical values, characters or signs are allowed to be WEP key. It is more
recognizable for user.
Default Key Select one of the keys (1~4) as the encryption key.
