Checking The Type Of Access Point - Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Instruction Manual

Checking the Type of Access Point

connection between Wi-Fi devices.
If you do not know if the access point you use is WPS-compatible, refer
to the access point instruction manual or other documentation.

Access Point Encryption
This camera supports the following options for [Authentication] and
[Encryption settings]. Therefore, when connecting to a detected
network manually, the encryption used by the access point must be one
of the following.
[Authentication]: Open system, Shared key, or WPA/WPA2-PSK

[Encryption settings]: WEP, TKIP, or AES

If stealth functions of the access point are active, connection may

be disabled. Deactivate stealth functions.
When connecting to a network that has a network administrator, ask the

administrator about the detailed setting procedures.
If the network you use filters by MAC address, register the MAC address of
the camera at the access point. The MAC address can be checked on the
[View info] screen (p.144).
