Connecting to a WLAN and configuring network settings

Wireless network (HMX-QF20 only)
Network connection tips
Compatibility with an AP that has not been formally Wi-Fi certified cannot be
guaranteed.
The wireless network connection may not be stable, depending on the
connected AP.
When the distance from AP is large, the network connection takes longer and
video stuttering may occur.
If there is a device using the same frequency range as the network near the
camcorder, you may experience wireless interference.
If an AP device is named in a language other than English, it may not be
displayed in the AP list or, if it is, it may appear in a corrupted format or font.
For the network settings and password, contact the network administrator or
the service provider.
The letters and numbers used in passwords may differ, depending on the
encryption type.
You may not be able to connect to the wireless network, depending on the
conditions.
The AP search may find a printer that supports the wireless network, but you
cannot use the printer to connect to the network.
The service provider may charge you a fee for the wireless connection under
the contract made between you and the service provider.
Channels available for networking differ according to the region (country).
Some countries may restrict wireless networking under local radio regulation
laws. We recommend you connect your camcorder to networks only inside the
country where you purchased it.
If your AP name is not in English, the camcorder may not be able to locate the
device or the name may appear incorrectly.
If a WLAN requires authentication from the service provider, you may not be
able to connect to it. To connect the WLAN, contact your network service
provider.
If you cannot connect to a WLAN, try another AP from the available AP list.
You can also connect to free WLANs in some foreign countries.
A login page may appear when you select free WLANs provided by some
network service providers. Enter your ID and password to connect to the
WLAN. For information about registering or the service, contact the network
service providers.
