AXIS 211W Installation Guide
Key type - The key types available depend on the access point being used. The follow-
ing options are available:
•
Manual - Allows you to manually enter the hex key.
•
ASCII - In this method the string must be exactly 5 characters for 64-bit WEP
and 13 characters for 128-bit WEP.
•
Passphrase - In 64-bit WEP, the Passphrase generates 4 different keys. For 128-
bit WEP, only 1 key is generated, which is then replicated for all 4 keys. Key gen-
eration is not standardized and can differ from brand to brand. Check that the
generated keys are identical to those in your access point - if not, they must be
entered manually.
•
WEP - Active transmit key - When using WEP encryption, this selects which of
the 4 keys the AXIS 211W uses when transmitting.
Complete the wireless installation using a network cable
1. Check that the wireless settings in the camera correspond to the settings in the access
point.
2. Disconnect the network cable from the camera.
3. Refresh the web page after 20-30 seconds to confirm the wireless connection. If the
camera cannot be accessed, run AXIS IP Utility to discover the camera again.
Note:
Wireless settings should always (during installation and at all other times) be
configured or changed in the camera first and in the wireless access point sec-
ondly. This ensures that the camera is always accessible when making changes.
