COOLPIX CONNECT l Home Wireless LAN • Home wireless LAN refers to wireless LAN environment used at home. COOLPIX CONNECT services are available in infrastructure mode, which supports connection to the Internet via an access point. COOLPIX CONNECT services are not available if the home wireless LAN uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet. • For more information on home wireless LAN configuration, contact the manufacturer of the wireless LAN adapter or access point, or see other commercially available references on wireless LAN. l Network Profile • A network profile refers to network information that must be configured with the camera to enable connection to the Internet via an access point. In general, SSID (Service Set Identifier) is referred to as a network name. When specifying SSIDs for COOLPIX CONNECT, configure an individual network profile for each SSID. For more information on configuring network profiles, see "Configuring Wireless LAN Settings from the Camera" (c 130) and "Configuring Wireless LAN Settings from a Computer" (c 139). • The first 16 characters of SSIDs (up to 32 alphanumerical characters) are automatically used for corresponding network profiles. • Network profiles required for home wireless LAN connections can be configured using the camera, or a computer and the supplied COOLPIX CONNECT Utility. When using the camera, network profiles can be configured by choosing the desired COOLPIX CONNECT service from the camera's setup menu. Note that connection may not be possible depending on wireless LAN access point settings. l The COOLPIX CONNECT Utility • The COOLPIX CONNECT Utility (hereafter referred to as Utility) is software that can be installed and used to configure network profiles for wireless connection and to edit configuration settings with the camera when the camera is connected to the computer via the supplied audio video/USB cable. Configuration is possible using the camera's setup menu. However, the Utility may be more convenient for entering text, such as for e-mail addresses. • Install the Utility from the yellow COOLPIX CONNECT Utility/PictureProject Installer CD supplied with the camera (c 140). 125 Wireless Services
