Configuring Wi-Fi
20
Depending on your camera configuration, you can connect the camera to a wireless local
area network (WLAN) using Wi-Fi, or let the camera provide Wi-Fi access to other
devices.
You can connect the camera in two different ways:
• Setting up the camera as a wireless access point. This method is primarily used with
other devices, e.g., an iPhone or iPad.
• Connecting the camera to a Wi-Fi network.
The Wi-Fi functionality is managed from the Settings menu. You can also enable/disable
Wi-Fi on the swipe-down menu. For more information, see section 6.6.5 Swipe-down
menu.
20.1 Setting up a wireless access point
1. Push the navigation pad to display the menu system.
2. Select
(Settings) and push the navigation pad. This displays the Settings menu.
3. Use the navigation pad to select Connections > Wi-Fi.

external device to connect that device to the network.

nection, select Forget network.
Note Some networks do not broadcast their existence. They appear in the list as Unti-
tled. To connect to such a network, you will be prompted to enter additional parameters.
