Surrounding Electronic Devices • If the network speed becomes slow due to the influence of nearby electronic devices (radio interference), changing the channel may solve the problem. • IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless LANs use the same 2.4 GHz frequency band as microwave ovens, cordless phones, wireless microphones, and Bluetooth devices. This slows down the network speed if these devices are in the vicinity. • If an access point that uses the same frequency band as the camera is operating nearby, the network speed will be slower. Using Multiple Cameras • Do not duplicate IP addresses of devices in the same network. • To reduce radio interference, set a four-channel interval for the wireless LAN, for example, "1, 6, 11", "2, 7, 12", or "3, 8, 13". 22

For details, refer to [System] > [Communication] > [Wireless LAN] (P. 62).
Enable the wireless LAN settings on devices to be used and connect to the access point with the SSID that was
configured in step 2.
Enter the IP address configured in step 2.
Cautions and Troubleshooting for Wireless LAN Connection
If experiencing "Slow down of network speed" or "lost connection" while using a wireless LAN, refer to the following
examples.
How to install network devices (Wireless LAN support)
When using a wireless LAN indoors, install the camera and network device in the same room.
Install the camera and network device in a location with good visibility, where there is no interference from people
or objects.
Place the camera and network device as close to each other as possible. If necessary, change the installation
height and orientation.

changing the channel may solve the problem.
IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless LANs use the same 2.4 GHz frequency band as microwave ovens, cordless phones,
wireless microphones, and Bluetooth devices. This slows down the network speed if these devices are in the

If an access point that uses the same frequency band as the camera is operating nearby, the network speed will
be slower.
Using Multiple Cameras
Do not duplicate IP addresses of devices in the same network.
To reduce radio interference, set a four-channel interval for the wireless LAN, for example, "1, 6, 11", "2, 7, 12", or
"3, 8, 13".
