DCS-G900 Configuration

This can be selected to restrict bandwidth usage of the DCS-G900

in a high traffic network so that the camera does not consume all the

bandwidth. If too much bandwidth is being used in a network that cannot

support it, excessive lag during video transmission may occur. Lowering

the transmission rate will sometimes help.

There are 4 key fields that you are able to input

the security keys. This is in case you have more

than 1 network that you can connect to. Instead

of having to put in the encryption key every time

you can select key 1, 2, 3, or 4. This is especially

helpful for 128-bit HEX (52 characters!).

This is where you can select which key you

want to use.

In

Open mode, anyone with the right SSID can

connect to the camera, but in

Shared mode

the user will need to have the right encryption

key to connect the camera thereby providing

higher security

This represents the amount of time between beacon transmissions, in

which the beacon interval tells the Router/Access Point on the network

how long they can wait in low-power mode before waking up the IP

camera.

Note: A beacon is a packet sent by the IP camera to inform the

Router/Access Point of the IP camera’s presence and readiness. The

Router/Access Point and IP camera are all on the same network.

Wi-Fi Protected Access with

Preshared Key, the key field (bottom)
