Troubleshooting Nearby electronic devices - If the transmission rate over a Wi-Fi network drops because of interference from the following electronic devices, switching to the 5 GHz band or to a different channel may solve the problem. - Wi-Fi networks using the IEEE 802.11b/g/n protocol operate in the 2.4 GHz band. For this reason, the transmission rate may drop if there are nearby microwave ovens, cordless telephones, wireless microphones and Bluetooth or similar devices operating on the same frequency band. - If another access point operating on the same frequency band as the Wi-Fi adapter connected to the camera is used nearby, the transmission rate may drop. Using multiple cameras/Wi-Fi adapters/access points - Check that there are no IP address conflicts among the devices connected to the same network. - If multiple cameras are connected to a single access point, connection speeds may be reduced. - To reduce radio wave interference when there are multiple access points using IEEE 802.11b/g or IEEE 802.11n (in the 2.4 GHz band), leave a gap of four channels between each wireless access point. For example, use channels 1, 6, and 11, channels 2, 7, and 12, or channels 3, 8, and 13. If you can use IEEE 802.11a/n/ac (in the 5 GHz band), switch to IEEE 802.11a/n/ac and specify a different channel, leaving an appropriate gap between channels according to the wireless standard and frequency band used. For example, when using IEEE 802.11ac (VHT80), leave a gap of 8 channels between access points. 217
