Connecting to your Network

Wired Network:
Connect the camera's Ethernet port to any available port on your wireless router
using the supplied Ethernet cable (see opposite). Make sure the computer that you
want to use to configure and/or access the camera is connected to the same router.
Wireless Network:
If your wireless router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can easily create
a WPS connection to the camera. WPS is a way of securely connecting devices to
a wireless network without all that fussing about with IP addresses or security
keycodes. To create a WPS connection:
1. Press and hold the WPS button on the back of the camera until the blue Wi-Fi LED indicator starts
blinking.
2. Press the WPS button on your router. This button is located in different places on different routers -
some might require that you press and hold the button and others might only need a momentary press.
Check your router's documentation for assistance. The camera will automatically create a wireless
connection to your router and once this connection is established, the Wi-Fi LED indicator will steady.
If your router doesn't support WPS and you want to connect wirelessly then that's ok, just connect the camera to your
home network through the Ethernet cable and then configure camera's Wireless Network settings in the SwannEye HD
Pro software. For additional information, see the SwannEye HD instruction manual.
