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.

Choose between 64 bits or 128 bits.
Choose between ASCII or HEX.
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
Advanced Setting
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.
Beacon Interval:
Wi-Fi Protected Access with Preshared Key, the key field (bottom)
needs to be filled out and will support up to 128-bit encryption.
