Configuring Wi-Fi
22
22.1 General
Depending on your camera configuration, you can connect the camera to a wireless local
area network (WLAN) using Wi-Fi, or let the camera provide Wi-Fi access to other devices.
You can connect the camera in two different ways:
• Most common use : Setting up the camera as a wireless access point. This method is
primarily used with other devices, e.g., an iPhone or iPad.
• Less common use : Connecting the camera to a wireless local area network (WLAN).
The Wi-Fi functionality is managed from the Settings menu. You can also enable/disable
Wi-Fi on the swipe-down menu. For more information, see section 8.4 Swipe-down menu ,
page 23.
