Configuring Wi-Fi
12
12.1 General
You can connect the camera in two different ways:
• Most common use: Setting up a peer-to-peer connection (also called an ad hoc or
P2P connection). This method is primarily used with other devices, e.g., an iPhone or
iPad.
• Less common use: Connecting the camera to a wireless local area network (WLAN).
12.2 Setting up a peer-to-peer connection (most common use)
Follow this procedure:
1. On the camera, push the navigation pad to display the menu system.
2. Use the navigation pad to go to Settings.
3. Push the navigation pad.
4. Select Device settings and push the navigation pad.
5. Select Wi-Fi and push the navigation pad.
6. Select Share and push the navigation pad.
7. (Optional step.) To display and change the parameters, select Settings and push the
navigation pad.
• If the transfer rate is low, this can be due to a crowded frequency band. Try chang-
ing the channel to increase the transfer rate. To change the channel (the channel
that the camera is broadcasting on), select Channel and push the navigation pad.
• To activate WEP (encryption algorithm), select WEP and push the navigation pad.
This will check the WEP check box.
• To change the WEP password, select Password and push the navigation pad.
Note These parameters are set for your camera’s network. They will be used by the
external device to connect that device to the network.
12.3 Connecting the camera to a wireless local area network (less common use)

6. Select Connect to network and push the navigation pad.
7. Select Networks and push the navigation pad right.
8. Select a network by pushing the navigation pad. You typically need to enter a pass-
word to access the network.
Note Some networks do not broadcast their existence. To connect to such a network,
select Settings from the Networks list and push the navigation pad. Then select Add net-
work... and set all parameters manually for that network.
