Connecting to a Smartphone Personal Hotspot
By using its personal Wi-Fi hotspot function, a smartphone can share its wireless
data connection with the Wi-Fi SD card via Wi-Fi. In any location that the smartphone
has a mobile Internet connection, the smartphone acts as an Internet hotspot,
allowing you to share photos over the Internet instantly.
Smartphone personal hotspot setup:
1. While connected to the Wi-Fi SD card in Direct Share mode (see previous section
for instructions), launch the Wi-Fi SD App from your iOS/Android home screen.
2. Tap Settings and enter the admin username and password, then tap Internet
Mode.
Note: The default username and password are both admin (all lower case)
3. Enter the SSID and password of the smartphone’s hotspot and tap Done.
General Use:
1. Insert the Wi-Fi SD card and power-on your camera.
2. If the default startup mode is Internet Mode then the Wi-Fi SD card will connect to
the hotspot automatically. Otherwise, go to Settings -> Switch Connection
Mode and select Internet Mode, then tap Apply.
3. Turn on the personal Wi-Fi hotspot feature of the smartphone.
The Wi-Fi SD card
will connect automatically.
