Access Point Set.

You can register your access point manually. Before starting the procedure, check the SSID name of the access point, security system, and password. The password may be preset in some devices. For details, see the access point operating instructions, or consult the access point administrator.

Set [Wi-Fi Connect] to [On] in advance.

  1. MENU (Network) → [Wi-Fi][Access Point Set.].
  2. Select the access point you want to register.

    When the desired access point is displayed on the screen: Select the desired access point.

    When the desired access point is not displayed on the screen: Select [Manual Setting] and set the access point.

    • If you select [Manual Registration], input the SSID name of the access point, then select the security system.
    • If you select [WPS PIN], you can register the access point by entering the PIN code displayed on the camera into the connected device.
  3. Input the password, and select [OK].

    • Access points without (Lock mark) do not require a password.
    • Note that unmasking your password risks revealing your password to a third party. Make sure that no one is around before unmasking.
  4. Select [OK].

Other setting items

Depending on the status or the setting method of your access point, you may want to set more items.

For an unregistered access point, select the [Detail] button on the password entry screen.

For a registered access point, press the right side of the control wheel on the access point selection screen.

Priority Connection:
Select [On] or [Off].
IP Address Setting:
Select [Auto] or [Manual].
IP Address:
If you are entering the IP address manually, enter the set address.

Hint

  • When you select a registered access point, [Priority Connection] for that access point becomes set to [On], prioritizing connections to that access point.
  • The prioritized access point is marked with a (crown) icon.

Note

  • Once an access point is registered, [Priority Connection] for that access point is set to [On]. If you want to stop preferentially connecting to a certain access point, set [Priority Connection] for the access point to [Off].
  • If there are both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz access points with the same SSID and encryption format, the access point with the stronger radio field will be displayed.
