Encryption
It’s of course extremely important to set up the same configuration in the AXIS 207W as in the
Access Point/Router. If they are not using the same encryption type and key there will be no
communication. First select if you would like to use WEP or WPA/WPA2. If WEP is used it’s
recommended to use open mode since shared key is not secure to use. The best choice would be to
use WPA/WPA2 with a Passphrase though since this method is more secure. Use a Passphrase that
can’t be guessed by anyone and double check that you use the same key in all devices that you
would like to connect.
Network settings
If you’re switching between wired and wireless connection it’s easier if the IP address configuration
is set up with the same IP address in both cases.
