18 Use the camera on a wireless LAN [Wireless] (SW174W only)

•Default: 802.11n/b/g [ShortGI enabled]

3.Set each item of the [Wireless: Encryption settings] in accordance to the encryption method used.

WEP method

WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA-PSK (AES), WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES), WPA2-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES), or WPA/WPA2-mixedmode PSK method

[Encryption method]

Select the encryption method for the data to be transmitted. Encryption helps protect wireless communications from being accessed or intercepted by unauthorized parties.

•WEP method: 64bit/128bit: Encryption is performed with 64 or 128 bit WEP method.

•WPA-PSK (TKIP): TKIP is used to perform encryption. Because TKIP updates the encryption key at set intervals, it has stronger encryption than WEP.

•WPA-PSK (AES): AES is used to perform encryption. Because AES updates the encryption key at set intervals, it has stronger encryption than WEP. Because WPA-PSK (AES) processes encryption at hardware level, it is able to contain speed losses better than when compared to WPA-PSK (TKIP), but it can only connect to devices that support it.

•WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES): WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA-PSK (AES) is automatically selected according to the encryption method used by the wireless router.

•WPA2-PSK (TKIP): This method has stronger encryption than WEP and WPA.

•WPA2-PSK (AES): This method has stronger encryption than WEP and WPA. Because WPA2-PSK (AES) processes encryption at hardware level, it is able to contain speed losses better than when compared to WPA2-PSK (TKIP), but it can only connect to devices that support it.

•WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES): WPA2-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2-PSK (AES) is automatically selected according to the encryption method used by the wireless router.

•WPA/WPA2-mixedmode PSK: A combination of WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA-PSK (AES), or WPA2-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2-PSK (AES) is automatically selected according to the encryption method used by the wireless router.

•No encryption: Data transmission between the wireless router and camera is not encrypted.

•Default: No encryption

[WEP key 1]

WEP key 1 can be entered when “WEP method: 64bit/128bit” is selected for the encryption method. If the connected wireless router has key selection, select key number 1. There are 2 types of encryption keys: 64 bit and 128 bit. Generally speaking, because the longer a WEP key is the harder it is to decipher, longer keys are considered to be safer.

Select the key length from the pull-down menu.

•10 hex characters: 64bit

Example: 012345abcd

•26 hex characters: 128bit

Example: 0123456789abcdef012345abcd
