Checking The Type Of Access Point - Canon EOS Rebel T6i Instruction Manual

Checking the Type of Access Point

To start with, check if the access point supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup
(WPS) that allows easy 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.
When WPS is supported

The following two connection methods are available. Connection
can be established easier with WPS (PBC mode). However, both
provide high security settings.
• Connection via WPS (PBC mode): Perform the operations
described on page 71.
• Connection via WPS (PIN mode): Perform the operations
described on page 74.
When WPS is not supported

• Manual connection by searching networks: Perform the operations
described on page 78.
If stealth functions of the access point are enabled, 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
[General sett.] screen (p.138).
