Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network
Wirelessly connecting to a Wi-Fi network via an access point (wireless
router) is commonly referred to as infrastructure mode. If your wireless
router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), setup will be easy and
require minimal configuring. Refer to
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
below. If
your wireless router does not support WPS or you wish to manually
configure settings, refer to
Manual Setup
(
A
151).
Refer also to the instruction manual of your wireless router and other
devices you will use.
General requirements
• Correctly configured Wi-Fi network or hotspot
that uses the 802.11b/g/n protocol.
POINTS TO CHECK
• Using an unprotected Wi-Fi network can expose your files and data to
monitoring by unauthorized third parties. Be aware of the risks involved.
• When using the camcorder's Wi-Fi
functions, do not cover the right side
of the camcorder with your hand or
other object. The Wi-Fi antenna is
located on the right side and covering
it may interfere with wireless signals.
Place the camcorder on a table or
similar surface and then use the Wi-Fi
functions, as shown in the illustration
on the left.
