Question
Which wireless routers and settings are compatible with my encoder?
Answer
Wireless Encoder Compatibility and Troubleshooting
The wireless video encoder supports the 802.11B/G wireless standards and 64/128 bit WEP. 802.11A/N standards are not supported, and no wireless encryption method other than WEP (e.g. WPA) is supported.
The following routers have been tested and found compatible*:
Actiontec GT701-WG
Netgear WPN824 v2
Netgear WGT624 v2
Cameo WLG-2206
Dlink DWL-2100AP
Buffalo
WZR-RS-G54
Linksys WRT150N
Linksys WRT54G v8
The following routers have been tested and found incompatible*:
Linksys WRT54G (v7 and older)
Linksys WRT54GS
Linksys WRT54GC
Network Everywhere NWR11B
If you cannot get your encoder to work on your wireless network, please try the following steps:
1. Verify that the firmware in both the encoder and the router are the latest available
2. Disable any encryption
3. Set the router to B/G mix or G if it supports 802.11N
4. Set the router to a 192.168.X.X IP address
5. Ensure that DHCP is enabled on the wireless router
6. Connect the encoder a few feet from the router to rule out signal problems
* Testing was done with an encoder server version of 1.1.0.2. These tests are not all-inclusive; there are many more models that will work and there may be more that do not. If you believe you have discovered a router compatibility issue, please contact technical support.
