164If the transmission rate drops, the connection is lost, or other problemsoccur when using the camera with a wireless LAN, try the followingcorrective actions.When using indoors, install the device in the same room that youare shooting.Install the device higher than the camera.Install the device where people or objects do not come between itand the camera.Install the device as close to the camera as possible. In particular,note that during outdoor use in poor weather, rain may absorbradio waves and disrupt the connection.If the transmission rate of a wireless LAN drops because of theinfluence of the following electronic devices, stop using them orestablish a connection further away from them.The camera communicates over wireless LANs via IEEE 802.11b/g/n using radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band. For this reason, thewireless LAN transmission rate may drop if there are microwaveovens, cordless telephones, microphones, or similar devicesoperating on the same frequency band nearby.If a Wi-Fi device on the same frequency band as the camera isused nearby, the transmission rate of the wireless LAN may drop.When connecting multiple cameras to one access point, makesure that the cameras’ IP addresses are different.When multiple cameras are connected to one access point, thetransmission rate drops.When there are multiple IEEE 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz band) accesspoints, leave a gap of four channels between each wireless LANchannel to reduce radio wave interference. For example, usechannels 1, 6, and 11, channels 2 and 7, or channels 3 and 8.Wireless LAN NotesAccess Point and Antenna Installation LocationNearby Electronic DevicesNotes for Using Multiple CamerasCOPY
