For a device to connect to WiFi, it must know:
- Which WiFi network to select, and
- The password to the WiFi network.
Devices such as phones, tablets, laptops, computers, etc. have keyboards which can be used to enter this information.
How can devices without keyboards learn the required information?
Aha. WiFi cameras have a camera that can be pointed at a QR code so that software in the camera can extract the information from the QR code and use it to connect. Most WiFi cameras I have seen are set up by having the smartphone app create a QR code. (My older WiFi cameras included an Ethernet port so that they could be wired into the network and set up using a computer connection before being connected via WiFi.)
Can you provide a link to the Uniden set up instructions for this model of camera.?
