Connection/Network Bridging - CamRanger User Manual

In certain scenarios or troubleshooLng steps it may be necessary to start completely fresh. To
do so, the CamRanger app will need to be completely closed. To completely close the
CamRanger app, please follow these steps:
• Ensure the main/home iOS screen is visible (can be done by pressing the home buOon)
• Double tap the home buOon
• For iOS 7, locate the CamRanger window and swipe up or down to close it
• For iOS 5/6, locate the CamRanger icon on the boOom bar and then press the minus
sign
Connec0on/Network Bridging
The network bridging features only works with CamRanger firmware 6 and up and the
CamRanger app 2.0 and up. Refer to the Firmware Update secLon of this document for further
details about the firmware update.
By clicking on the ConnecLon/Network tab
within the CamRanger Sejngs, the following
will appear in the drop down.
The network sejng allows the user to be
connected to the CamRanger and an addiLonal Internet network simultaneously. Previously
when using the CamRanger, the iOS device could only be connected to the CamRanger WiFi
network, making it so the user could not use any other network when the CamRanger was in
use. Note that connecLon to an addiLonal network may slow down the performance of the
CamRanger.
To join an exisLng network, first connect to the CamRanger network from within the iOS
sejngs and then start the CamRanger app. Select the 'Sejngs' buOon from within the
CamRanger app, expend the ConnecLon/Network tab and then click on the 'View/Edit' buOon.
A dialog will appear lisLng any networks that the CamRanger sees. One can join a parLcular
network by selecLng the network of interest and then entering the password if necessary. The
CamRanger will then aOempt to join that network. Note that while connecLng to the addiLonal
network the CamRanger network will momentarily disconnect. One should join the addiLonal
network before starLng a CamRanger session, aOempted to do so during a session may disrupt
the current session. The CamRanger cannot bridge with hidden Internet networks.
Once one has connected to an addiLonal network, this network will automaLcally be saved in
the CamRanger sejngs. The addiLonal networks will be listed at the boOom of the network
dialog, "Known CamRanger Networks," and can be accessed within the 'View/Edit' tab, within
the 'ConnecLon/Network' tab, found in the CamRanger 'Sejngs'. Whenever the CamRanger is
turned on, the CamRanger will aOempt to join any of the known networks on the "Known
CamRanger Networks" dialog list. If mulLple networks are within range, it will join the network
with the strongest signal. Networks can be added or deleted by selecLng the 'Edit' buOon,
found next to the "Known CamRanger Network" list. If one does not want the CamRanger to
join to any networks on this list, it is recommended to delete the networks from the list.
