Troubleshooting
If you cannot successfully connect the camcorder to the wireless
router, check below. Refer also to the instruction manual of your wire-
less router and other devices you will use. Consult your dealer or a
Canon Service Center if the problem persists.
Cannot connect with the wireless router.
- Check that the wireless router is working correctly.
- The effective communication range between the camcorder and wireless router may vary
depending on the strength of the wireless signal. Try using the camcorder closer to the wire-
less router.
- Cordless phones, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other appliances in the line of sight
between the wireless router and the camcorder may interfere with the wireless signal. Try
using the camcorder in a location farther away from such appliances.
- Wi-Fi networks with a stealth function that do not broadcast their network name (SSID) will
not be detected by the camcorder during the Wi-Fi network setup. Perform the setup manu-
ally (; Manual Setup in Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network) or turn off the stealth function
of the wireless router.
