Confirming Access Point Compatibility Confirm that the Wi-Fi router or base station conforms to the Wi-Fi standards in "Interface" (= 213). Connection methods vary depending on whether the access point supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS, =142) or not (=144). For non-WPS access points, check the following information. ●● Network name (SSID/ESSID) The SSID or ESSID for the access point you use. Also called the "access point name" or "network name". ●● Network authentication / data encryption (encryption method / encryption mode) The method for encrypting data during wireless transmission. Check which security setting is used: WPA2-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (TKIP), WPA-PSK (AES), WPA-PSK (TKIP), WEP (open system authentication), or no security. ●● Password (encryption key / network key) The key used when encrypting data during wireless transmission. Also called the "encryption key" or "network key". ●● Key index (transmit key) The key set when WEP is used for network authentication / data encryption. Use "1" as the setting. ●● If system administrator status is needed to adjust network settings, contact the system administrator for details. ●● These settings are very important for network security. Exercise adequate caution when changing these settings. ●● For information on WPS compatibility and for instructions on checking settings, refer to the access point user manual. ●● A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for connecting multiple computers. A router that contains an internal Wi-Fi function is called a "Wi-Fi router". ●● This guide refers to all Wi-Fi routers and base stations as "access points". ●● If you use MAC address filtering on your Wi-Fi network, be sure to add the camera's MAC address to your access point.
