When WPS configuration is done, wireless connectivity will be established and the

security encryption, such as WEP or WPA-PSK, will be synchronized with the AP�

Use the IW2 utility to find the camera. As for IP setting, the camera's use of DHCP or static IP is determined by your configuration on the network camera via the web- based configuration of firmware. The camera's default is DHCP.

NOTE:

1. WPS may not work if your AP is configured with a "hidden" SSID.

2� If no WPS-enabled AP is detected, the camera will repeat vocal instructions by every 20 seconds, and if the camera still can not detect an AP after 2 minutes, the wireless setup will be cancelled�

3.If a camera is assigned with a fixed IP outside the AP's network segment, wireless setup will fail�

4� A wired connection always has a higher priority, and hence wireless setup will not take effect when the RJ45 LAN port is connected�
