Connecting the Camera and Personal Computer by Network (Cont.)

Introduction

NOTE

Information may be intercepted if you use a wireless LAN connection. Improve security by using WEP key. (→ page 33)

Communication using a wireless LAN connection is slower compared to that of a wired connection, therefore, less image frames can be delivered.

If you use a wireless LAN connection, the effect of obstructions and

 

distance may result in slower communication speeds and the inability

to deliver images. If this is the case, you may be able to achieve slight

improvements by decreasing image and file sizes.
