24  Configuring Wi-Fi

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:
  • Setting up the camera as a wireless access point. This method is primarily used with other devices, e.g., an iPhone or iPad.
  • Connecting the camera to a Wi-Fi network.
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 8.7.5 Swipe-down menu .
