Ad-Hoc (another client).
Security - Shows which type of security the network uses. See below
for the security types supported by the camera.
Channel - Shows the wireless channel currently in use.
Signal strength - Shows the signal strength.
Bit rate - Shows the bit rate in Megabit/s. This can only be shown for
the access point currently in use. Note that the bit rate shown is the
current rate, and that this value may vary over time.
Wireless Setting
These settings control how the camera interacts with the wireless network. It is
also possible to enable wireless encryption apart from identifying the wireless
network.
IP Address – This displays blank, 0.0.0.0 or IP Address. When it is
blank, the camera doesn’t establish physical link with access point yet.
The 0.0.0.0 means that physical link was established but trying to get IP
address. When it displays IP address, then user can use wireless
network.
ESSID (ESSID is sometimes written as SSID.) - This is the name of
the wireless network the camera is configured for. The field accepts up
to 32 alphanumeric characters. The name must be exactly the same as
that used in the wireless access point or the connection will not be
established.
Leaving this field blank means the camera will attempt to access the
nearest open network.
Mode - Setting this to Managed means the camera will attempt to
access the nearest open access point. The Ad-hoc option allows the
camera to connect to other wireless devices clients.
Note :
1. WPA-/WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key) the
camera uses a pre-shared key (PSK) to initiate WPA security. The
pre-shared key is entered on the access point and on each device on the
wireless network. The key can be entered either as Manual hex, as 64
hexadecimal (0-9, A-F) characters, or as a Passphrase, using 8 to 63
ASCII characters. The access point keeps out unauthorized users by
requiring the key to communicate.
2. WEP (Wired Equivalent Protection) the original security standard
used in wireless networks that provides a minimal level of security that
can deter minor trespasses. The administrator can select the key length
among 64 or 128 bits. 64bits is the default setting.
