Determines the type of wireless communication used by the
Camera.
•
If you have an access point, select Infrastructure.
•
Otherwise, select Ad-hoc.
Select the appropriate value (Open System or Shared Key), as
used on your LAN.
Note: In Infrastructure mode, either setting will normally work,
since most access points can use both methods.
This must match the value used by other devices on your wireless
LAN.
Note: The SSID is case sensitive.
Select your region from the drop-down list.
•
In Infrastructure mode, this setting is ignored. The Camera will
use the channel set on the access point.
•
For Ad-hoc mode, select the channel you wish to use on your
Camera. Other wireless stations should use the same setting.
•
If you experience interference (shown by lost connections
and/or slow data transfers), you may need to experiment with
different channels to see which one is the best.
This shows the current WEP setting.
•
This must match other wireless stations on your LAN.
•
Click Configure WEP to change the WEP settings if required.
Enable or disable the DDNS function, as required.
Only enable this feature if you have registered for the DDNS
service with a DDNS server provider.
Choose a service provider from the list.
Enter the host name (domain name) allocated to you by the DDNS
server provider.
Enter the login name for the DDNS account.
Enter the password for the DDNS account.
Set the schedule for checking if the IP address has changed. If the
IP address has changed, the DDNS server will be notified.
Enable UPnP support if required. If enabled, the Camera will
broadcast its availability using UPnP. UPnP compatible systems
such as Windows XP will then be able to detect the presence of the
Camera.
