LAN port
Accepts a standard LAN cable to connect the IP camera to a
10/100BASET hub, router, or switch.
On the wireless IP camera model, attaching a LAN cable disables
the wireless interface. Only 1 interface, wired or wireless, can be
active at a time.
Connect or disconnect the LAN cable only when the IP camera is
powered off. Doing so while the IP camera is powered on does not
switch the interface between wired and wireless.
