10. The Wireless Settings screen will appear, so you can change the wireless settings. Enter your wireless
network’s SSID or network name. If you chose Ad-Hoc mode, select the channel at which the network
broadcasts its wireless signal.
• SSID. The SSID must be identical for all devices in a wireless network. It is case-sensitive and should
have 32 alphanumeric characters or fewer. (You can use any keyboard character, but do not use any
spaces.)
• Channel. If you set the Camera to Ad-Hoc mode, select the appropriate channel from the drop-down
menu. All devices in your wireless ad-hoc network must use the same channel in order to function
correctly.
Then click the Next button.

11. The Security Settings screen will appear. If your network has WEP encryption enabled, then select the level of
WEP encryption and enter a Passphrase. If you want to manually enter a WEP key, leave the Passphrase field
blank, and enter the WEP key in the Key 1 field. If your network doesn’t have WEP encryption disabled, keep
the default, Disabled.
• WEP. To enable WEP encryption, select 64-Bit Keys or 128-Bit Keys from the drop-down menu. Then
enter a Passphrase. If you want to manually enter a WEP key, leave the Passphrase field blank.
• Passphrase. If you enabled WEP encryption, you can enter a Passphrase, so a WEP key will be
automatically generated. If you want to manually enter a WEP key, leave the Passphrase field blank. The
Passphrase is case-sensitive and should have 16 alphanumeric characters or fewer. It must match the
passphrase of your wireless network and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (You will
have to enter the WEP key(s) manually on any non-Linksys wireless products.)
• Key 1. If you want to manually enter a WEP key, complete this field. If you are using 64-bit WEP
encryption, then the key must consist of exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. If you are using 128-bit WEP
encryption, then the key must consist of 26 hexadecimal characters. Valid hexadecimal characters are
“0” through “9” and “A” through “F”.

Placement Options
There are three ways to place the Camera. The first way is to place the Camera horizontally on a surface, so it sits
on four small rubber feet. The second way is to stand the Camera vertically on a surface (see Figure 5-14). The
third way is to hang the Camera on a wall (see Figure 5-16). The second and third options are explained in further
detail below.
Stand Option
1. The Camera includes a Camera Desktop Stand. Insert the bottom end into the Stand.
2. Place the Camera, and adjust its aim and focus accordingly.
Figure 5-14: Stand Option
Wall Mount Option
Figure 5-15: Camera
Desktop Stand
The Camera has two wall-mount slots on its back panel. The distance between the slots is 80 mm (3.15 inches).
1. Determine where you want to mount the Camera. Attach two screws to the wall, so that the Switch’s wallmount slots line up with the two screws.
2. Maneuver the Camera so the screws are inserted into the two slots.
3. Adjust the Camera’s aim and focus accordingly.
Proceed to the next section, “Audio Option.”
Audio Option
If you want to use your own microphone instead of the Camera’s built-in microphone, then follow these
instructions:
Figure 5-16: Wall Mount Option
1. Connect the 2.5 mm input jack of your microphone to the Camera’s MIC IN port on its bottom panel. The builtin microphone will automatically be disabled.
2. Place the external microphone in an appropriate location.
The installation of the Wireless-G Internet Video Camera is complete. Go to “Chapter 6: Installing the
Wireless-G Internet Video Camera Viewer & Recorder Utility.”
If advanced users wish to access the Camera through its Web-based Utility, then proceed to “Chapter 8:

Camera Viewer & Recorder Utility
Overview
This chapter will instruct you on how to install and use the Wireless-G Internet Video Camera Viewer & Recorder
Utility on your PC. The Utility allows you to easily view and record the Camera’s video.
If the Wireless-B Internet Video Camera Viewer & Recorder Utility has already been installed on your PC, Linksys
recommends that you uninstall it before you install the Wireless-G Internet Video Camera Viewer & Recorder
Utility (this Utility will also work with Wireless-B Internet Video Cameras).
NOTE: To view video using a web browser, you must use Internet Explorer version 5.5 or higher. The
View Video feature will not work with Netscape. Netscape users should use the Viewer & Recorder
Utility instead.

Chapter 7: Setting up the Linksys SoloLink™ DDNS Service
Overview
This chapter will briefly discuss the Linksys SoloLink DDNS Service, explain how to set up your SoloLink account,
and describe how to register additional Cameras on your SoloLink account. You need only one SoloLink account.
Once you have set up your account, you can register additional Cameras, one at a time, through each Camera’s
Web-based Utility. This way each Camera can take advantage of the SoloLink DDNS Service.
Introduction
The SoloLink DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) Service lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a
dynamic Internet IP address. The instructions in this chapter will guide you through the setup needed for use of
the SoloLink DDNS Service. For the most current information about the SoloLink DDNS Service, visit
www.linksys.com/sololink. For a free, 90-day trial period of your SoloLink account, use the Access ID Card
included with the Camera.
You may want to use the Linksys SoloLink DDNS Service if one of the following applies to you:
Dynamic IP Address - Your Internet service assigns you a dynamic IP address. Many Internet service providers
(ISPs) assign a new IP address to your connection from time to time (for security purposes), or whenever you
disconnect and reconnect. The SoloLink service keeps track of your network’s address, even when it changes, so
you can “find” the Camera.
Figure 7-1: SoloLink Service
Convenience - There are a couple of ways the SoloLink service can be convenient. If you have a static IP address,
you can use the SoloLink service to enter a “name” and port number for remote access of the Camera via the
Internet. There’s no need to type an entire IP address. For example, you can give a Camera a “name” such as
cam1.myhouse.ourlinksys.com.
Also, some DDNS services require your PC to continuously run software that lets them keep track of your IP
address. If your PC isn’t powered on when your IP address changes, you won’t be able to find the Camera on the
Internet. The SoloLink service keeps track of where the Camera is.
Setup Wizard for the SoloLink DDNS Service
1. On the Welcome or Congratulations screen of the Setup Wizard, click the Setup SoloLink DDNS Service
button.

network is using a dynamic IP address. Click the Next button.
