About the camcorder's Wi-Fi standard
The camcorder's Wi-Fi standard complies with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n
protocol and operates in the 2.4 GHz band. As such, the maximum
data transfer rate is 11 Mbps for IEEE 802.11b, 54 Mbps for IEEE
802.11g, and 150 Mbps for IEEE 802.11n. Note that these are theo-
retical values and actual data transfer rates may differ.
Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
Wirelessly connecting to a Wi-Fi network via an access point (wireless
router) is commonly referred to as infrastructure mode. If your wireless
router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), setup will be easy and
require minimal configuring. Perform the following procedure. If your
wireless router does not support WPS or you wish to manually config-
ure settings, refer to Manual Setup (; Connecting to a Wi-Fi Net-
work).
Refer also to the instruction manual of your wireless router and other
devices you will use.
General requirements
• Correctly configured Wi-Fi network or hotspot
that uses the 802.11b/g/n protocol.
POINTS TO CHECK
• Using an unprotected Wi-Fi network can expose your files and data to
monitoring by unauthorized third parties. Be aware of the risks involved.
• When using the camcorder's Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi antenna
functions, do not cover the right side
of the camcorder with your hand or
other object. The Wi-Fi antenna is
located on the right side and covering
it may interfere with wireless signals.
