No access points found | âThe camcorder searched for active Wi-Fi networks (access points) in the area but none were found. Make sure the access point is working correctly and try connecting again. âThe access point is operating in stealth mode. Deactivate the stealth function in the wireless router (access point) settings. âThe camcorder may not be able to find the access point if MAC address filtering is activated. Check the [Network 3/6] status screen and make sure to add the camcorderâs MAC address to the list of approved wireless devices in the wireless router (access point) settings. |

When using WPS to make a wireless connection, keep the WPS button held down until the wireless routerâs WPS function is activated. âThe access pointâs encryption method is set to [WEP]. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) cannot connect to access points set to this encryption method. Change the access pointâs encryption method or use another connection method. |
Unable to connect | âCould not connect to the access point or network device selected. âCordless phones, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other appliances may interfere with the wireless signal. Try using the camcorder in a location farther away from such appliances. |
Unable to connect to FTP server. | Could not connect to the FTP server. Check the FTP server settings. |
Unable to obtain an IP address | âIf you are not using a DHCP server, connect using the [Manual] option and enter the IP address using the [Manual] option. âTurn on the DHCP server. If it is already on, make sure it is functioning properly. âMake sure the address range for the DHCP server is sufficient. âIf you are not using a DNS server, set the DNS address to one other than [0.0.0.0]. âSet the DNS serverâs IP address in the camcorder. âTurn on the DNS server. If it is already on, make sure it is functioning properly. âMake sure that the DNS serverâs IP address and the name for that address are correctly configured. âIf you are using a wireless gateway router, make sure all of the devices in the network, including the camcorder, are configured with the correct gateway address. |
Wi-Fi connection terminated | âAn error occurred on the access point or connected device. Check the network or connected device and try connecting again. âThe Wi-Fi signal became too weak and the wireless connection was lost. Wait a moment or turn off other devices in the area that may be interfering with the Wi-Fi signal and then try connecting again. |
