Using a Compatible Wireless Camera

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) enables the transfer of content to and from your drive's Public
folder through FTP. The drive supports default Anonymous login and takes advantage of Wi-
Fi security for protection. The My Passport Wireless drive is compatible with wireless
cameras that support FTP, such as Nikon WT-2 and Canon WFT. See Knowledge Base
Answer ID 11737 for information on compatible cameras. FTP is disabled by default.
