camera's MAC address. Choose Firmware version from the camera setup menu (
note the camera MAC address.
Port Numbers
The camera uses UDP port 5353 and TCP port 15740. If you are using a fi rewall, you will need
to confi gure it to leave these ports open.
Enter a name for the wireless network or choose from a list of existing
networks. Do not change the name if it is supplied automatically .
• Camera to Computer (Ad-hoc): The network is ad-hoc if it consists only of
the camera and the computer.
• Access Point (Infrastructure): Infrastructure networks include a wireless ac-
cess point connected to a local-area network.
The channel used for peer-to-peer wireless communication (ad-hoc
networks only). Choose from channels 1–11.
The type of authentication used by the computer or access point. The
camera supports WPA-PSK (infrastructure mode only), open system, and
shared key authentication.
The type of encryption (if any) used on the network. Depending on the
authentication used, the following types of encryption are available:
• Open: none, WEP 64-bit, WEP 128-bit
• Shared: WEP 64-bit, WEP 128-bit
• WPA-PSK: TKIP
If the network uses WEP encryption, note whether the key is base 16
(uses only the numbers 0–9 and the letters a–f ) or ASCII.
If the network uses TKIP or WEP encryption, enter the network key.
In infrastructure networks that use WEP encryption, enter the host or ac-
cess point key index. The default index is 1.
Note whether the network is confi gured to supply IP address automati-
cally (the default setting) or manually.
If the network is confi gured for manual IP addresses, enter the IP address
